A burglar in the 31st century is sentenced to lifetime solitary confinement. He is taken to a spaceport, where he escapes in an automated rocket that will never return to Earth, thinking that he has evaded the sentence and might one day land on another planet. This was the plan all along, since this enlightened society leaves even the worst criminals hope.
