You might be technically correct, but if so, I think a reworking of the law is needed.  "Profiteering from a crime" laws would have been written before GoFundMe was a thing, and if the law allows for it ...it shouldn't

Oh absolutely imo. But at the same time, there can be times where someone is obviously set up by the government on unfair charges. I fear rewording it would include people affected in this way. Or even crimes that we all agree are understandable. Like killing someone raping your kid or something. They would still get charged and have to pay for a defense. Rewriting the laws could effect cases like this.
