Abstract

According to the Dictionary of Criminal Justice Data Terminology, white-collar crime is “nonviolent crime for financial gain committed by means of deception by persons whose occupational status is entrepreneurial, professional, or semi-professional and utilizing their special occupational skills and opportunities.” For decades, the legal system has been relatively easy on whitecollar criminals.
