The solar system has been colonized, though the colonies are something like the old west, and Earth is a nearly uninhabitable wasteland.
The Inter Solar System Police (ISSP) developed a contract system legalizing bounty hunting across the planets.
Registered bounty hunters, referred to as "cowboys," go after criminals whose information is distributed via a television show and the internet.
When they catch them, they can bring them in alive for a reward.
Basically, law enforcement in the future decides to outsource chasing down crooks, and it becomes a (somewhat) valid profession.
