Two Answers:
1. Not as fiction, no. Fiction is to be about someone who during the film's timespan tries to do the moral-ethical rights thing and succeeds--whether he wins the day or not.
Clint Eastwood in Absolute Power is an example--career criminal--but he does the right thing at every point after his robbery is interrupted.
2. Not as Non-fiction no. What's the point? You can always have a criminal as a character, true life or not, but what's the point? lessons to potential imitators? What's the value for a normative in watching such things? A book can dwell on the wrongness of the person's acts, and keep context. No way in which a film for me can do that.
Thanks for asking
