An important note pertaining to New England Federation citizens removed from local jurisdictions by Starfleet. Removal from the jurisdiction is not a removal from consequences. The Federation fully understands that it would look bad if they allowed their citizens to victimize others with no penalties, but they will not allow a Federation citizen to languish in third world hellholes. Starfleet will remove any citizen from local custody, and then Starfleet lawyers will represent them in local court cases. Starfleet will even pay reasonable fines or penalties on their behalf based on agreements with local governments. And then Starfleet will help the citizen arrange repayment to the Federation for those services. Starfleet takes care of it all.
