Be ready to go to jail for shit you never did, and then be forced to watch the thing you never did for your entire sentence. What do you think you’ll do when you are released?

You’re assuming they’ll ever release you.

“I’m sorry, we predicted that, if we release you now, you’ll murder someone.”

That’s actually the idea. It’s bit general precrime, it’s a decision support tool for predicting recidivism when deciding parole cases.
That doesn’t mean it’s not on decidedly shonky ground statistically speaking.
