I think the net of crime bit is saying that like, justice isn't being served / criminals aren't being caught.
Owls are bad, remember? Baike also glosses as legend says they would eat their mothers when they grew up. Anyway, evil birds.
I-- don't think that 'wise' is meant to be a good adjective for a woman. I wonder if this part is calling out the Bao Si situation, where You wang was trying to depose his empress for her?
The three times bit is glossed as referring to get three times the profit. Calling them profiteers, basically? Baike's discussion on this stanza is that it's saying that the way to prevent women's disasters is for them to return to women's work and not the gov't.
Baike's explanation for the heaven's net stanza is that the narrator is worried about the country in the face of natural and man made disasters
