The real criminals are the often the ones in power. This would make the world less safe and help real criminals commit crimes with impunity, by targeting those who would seek to hold them to account.
No sinner from its sweep may hide.
Its meshes are so fine and strong,
They take in every child of wrong.
O wondrous web of mystery!
Big fish alone escape from thee!
— James Jeffrey Roche (1847-1908)
I mean, by definition, no. We usually call those "officials" or similar, it's not until convicted that they become "criminals".
The first two are often used as justifications for taking freedom away and giving more control or power to the government. However that gets us closer to an all powerful, unaccountable government.
Power corrupts, sooner or later those who wish to commit these crimes will seek out official positions where they can commit them with impunity.
