In a way, there are some "benefits". Lawyers, judges, police, etc. All the support staff for the crime related occupations all get paid for their services and pay taxes.

We all pay for crime. Higher taxes & insurance rates. Victims pay for crime by what they loose. This can range from loosing their life or a part of their body may be permanently damaged to developing mental problems after the incident.
