The only problem with Minority Report (aside from torturing the precogs, I mean) was treating the prevented murder as a crime and punishing it. If they had just used it as an intervention tool ... well, there'd be no movie.

Attempted murder is a crime pretty much everywhere.

I think it's more like borderline presumption of guilt.
