I could see several scenarios here.

  • Destruction of property. Somehow, those ships used for smuggling (guns, drugs, people) always seem to sink, with the innocent people on them usually surviving.
  • Fraud. (In casinos, no less. Or how else would he be able to always win?)
  • Theft. Bureau 39 always seems to misplace its UFOs.
  • More theft. Thugs usually find their pockets or holsters empty when trying to rob a bank.
  • Kidnapping. How else is he to save children from abusive parents?
  • Statutory rape. He met Lois before she was 16... (He'd probably have to be a little older for that.)
  • Arson. Darn that heat vision!
