Is this sentence correct?

In spite of breaking the law is virtuous to a fault and incorrect in the eyes of society, disregarding boundaries set by the state can be respectable in select situation.

I feel like the "of" should be "that" but maybe I'm incorrect. This is my Thesis statement for an essay on laws.
