If they log after demand has been stated, you can just bluff and say "hello officer I am just looking at this nice kruger ship" and he can say whatever he wants to the law, the law can't act upon it because they didn't witness the attempted piracy. So all you need to do is cease and desist when law shows up, then resume when law leaves. Big deal.
If only it were that easy. Indie officer with cloak reaches 9k distance and decloaks and then takes screens of the shields/hull of the pirated vessel. Then the offending vessel cannot give any more excuses.
