Then again, we did have an episode where they arrested a guy for stalking a couple, even though he probably would not have committed a crime.

There is no level of assessment of severity. There is just absolute numbers based on one type of analysis (the crime coefficient) that determines if you are a criminal or not. There is so much wrong with that.
while its true there are fatal flaws, but then again isn't there many flaws in our law system? with people getting away for crimes. I'm not endorsing the Sibyl system, but its clearly to have shown to work for their society seeing how crime is close to nil. If the only cases are ones investigated by the Enforcers, then it shows how low the overall crime rate is. It is proactive in the case that they deal with criminals before they commit a crime if the scanners manage to catch them before they hit the lethal level and they receive therapy. We haven't yet seen evidence of a repeated offender so as of right now, the therapy is a good preventative to crime and keeps the citizens mentally healthy
