Mysteriously ...
Rapture was a small place, Really only as large as a Town - "Hard to keep things Secret in a Small Town" - William Faulkner
"People Always Know What's Going On" - Raymond Chandler
Obvious Crimes ( which should have been handled by Obvious Objectivist Society Social Mechanism ) are CONTRIVED by the Game Writers to be hidden within Rapture (from Public Knowledge) -- and THUS from the Players -- to FORCE the writers' Dystopia (for their manipulative Plot).
It made some Players absurdly assume 'Everything was Allowed' in Rapture. But the way that Fontaine had to HIDE his evil deeds made it obvious THAT was not so. BUT that was not unsubtly "Unsubtle" - something done in a way which is noticeable, obvious, or direct. 'pointed out' to Players who are more concerned with what's going to jump out and try to kill them next.

Perps :
Fontaine - Extortion and Murder to grow his empire - Then the ADAM Atrocities
Suchong - Vague, but doing 'testing' on unsuspecting patients is hinted. Ethically Challenged - How many 'Jacks' did he go thru before one was a Success ?
Tenenbaum - Who did much of the 'grunt work' - Treated patients/test subjects like lab animals. ( Had Worked WITH Nazis in 'Human Experiments' ) How many children were 'failures' in her achieving success with Fontaine's "Slug Host" project ?
Sofia Lamb - Did much the same crimes as Fontaine had done with further 'ADAM' tech developments - part of her Utopian Project. Her "Rapture Family" murdered "Unbelievers".
Of course, all of it ( the Dystopia ) is all laid at Ryan's feet ... ( When the 'fruits of freedom' are hardly looked at, and so many things displayed were contrived for 'Story' - with so little detail ).
"You might as well Blame America's Founding Fathers for The Heinous Crimes of Charles Manson" - Arthur Dent in "Vogon Poetry for Idiots""Vogon Poetry" - reference to "Hitchhikers Guide to the Galaxy" ... 
Sander Cohen - So interesting, in a Charles Manson kind of way ....

Child Abuse/Murder/Enslavement by Fontaine
Consider How Many Children Fontaine "used up" experimenting to make the "Slug Host" thing work. How many dead (murdered children) ?
No, Rapture was not some lawless society of Ryan's. The Citizens IF THEY KNEW would have 'Lynched' Fontaine ( and maybe Tenenbaum and Suchong too ). It is why so much had to be 'kept secret' by Fontaine - and strangely was only exposed later when Ryan 'seized' Fontaine Futuristics.
BUT, BioShock's gamewriters could not allow such realism in their simpleton game story Simpleton Game - BioShock is STILL "Just a Game", and subtlety/realism/detail in 'story' does NOT work with the expected demographics of the Players for a mainstream/mass audience Slaughter-fest/Pop-a-Mole type Game.

Experimental Subjects Are Expendable :
How many "Jacks" did Fontaine have Suchong go through until success was achieved ??? ( It was not an easy or simple task, and they probably went through dozens of 'specimens' ). Possibly, the experiments where extensively done on OTHER (non-Ryan) embryos, while perfecting the 'Ace in The Hole' (A-Hole) Process ( ?? Useful maybe too, as a possible source of New pre-Big Daddy Maintenance Cyborg Candidates ??? ) The "Failures" probably 'wound up' in Rapture's Hotdog/Sausage supply ( Waste not, Want not ... )
Human Cloning was possibly done to create the Project's many required experimental 'specimens'. That (possibly) could have been an obvious source for Pre-Little-Sister Slug-symbionts. ( Unless Accelerated growth was otherwise too costly ... AND THEN why not simply clone Ryan himself ???? )
Consider : 'Jack' may NOT really have been Ryan's actual (biological) 'son', and was only a plastic-surgery-modified face with a transplantation of cloned 'genetic' Ryan-tissue to activate the security locks ( *IF* THAT GENETIC KEY STUFF WAS EVEN VIABLE (explained elsewhere) )
Perhaps Suchong, facing failure and Fontaine's displeasure, pulled off that swap -- Using some modified/wiped/brainwashed/trained stooge for Jack (YOU) delivered to the surface. (( SEE : Better Plot 'Twists' really aren't that hard ))

Fontaine/Atlas's Terrorism disrupted Rapture enough to have this family commit suicide in desperation/hopelessness. 
Some Players somehow think Ryan was the Villain in the Game.
Game Players are usually fed such Bad Fantasy in games. So many likely don't give a second thought to such things. Unfortunately, BioShock's Rapture ( with its supposed emphasis on "story" and the Nostalgic image ) could be considered a 'mirror' to Our Society.

Once Fontaine had Ryan's Control Key, did he start killing any Ryan Loyalists ?
"Gene Traitor" does not sound something Ryan would say. Those guilty of Smuggling were seen hung, with an appropriate "crime" banner ( which this isn't ).
