Another option could be for Pend Insurance to refuse to issue rookie ships to criminals. At least the potential criminal will have to engage in the activity of collecting rookie ships in preparation for a crime.
While I don't like the logoffski tactic, there is something wrong with the situation where a player loses control of their character for an hour at the whim of some other player.

Can you list the controls unavailable to him?
Lack of control does not infer inability to access the controls.
You can have your hands on the steering wheel while your car is sliding over ice: you are at the controls and actively manipulating them, but you have no control.
My concern isn't the lack of control, it is the hour long deprivation of control. Bumping is fine, when you are buying a minute or three for the gank fleet to arrive. Bumping for an hour while maintaining the aggression timer with suicide shots is bot-aspirant levels of absurd. If the gank fleet can't get their acts together in fifteen minutes, they really didn't deserve that gank.
But please do keep pushing the limits of credulity until CCP is forced to take action simply to reduce the petition load

You are correct, the Machariels were not keeping the freighter aggressed. Was someone claiming that the Machariels were keeping the freighter aggressed?

Because punishing the victim is all the rage these days.
