I actually had this initial thought, wow, not they know who all of the serial killers and rapists are, but I think from the perspective of the hive mind, those people are for all intents and purposes reformed, they are integrated and share the same intent as everyone else, so punishment would be meaningless.

I feel like there is something of a ant colony type scenario, so as the hive decides in need procreation you will have breeding camps. specific people will be sent there at specific times in their life to have the appropriate quantity of reproduction. I probably descends into some form of eugenics where the hive is specifically breading for traits it finds to be important.
