I don't like off-station crimes and I can't describe why

[DisturbHerb]

I'm kinda stuck when people bring up a jailbird's SecMate record, see the charges, then promptly dismiss them as "off-station" or whatever. This has never sat right with me. I can understand prioritising more pressing security matters but outright dismissing an arrest warrant feels wrong. The only reason they'd be on the record is if Security had the jurisdiction to pursue them with the full force of the law, right? I'm similarly getting mixed reactions when I ask people to pursue these arrest warrants with detaining and questioning, with pushback including the whole "off-station" bit.

We've been discussing the merits of the trait as it has been for ages and I'm not sure to what extent this thread is gonna contribute to the discussion, but I just wanna know if this feeling is shared at all.
