The document instructs the reader to research and analyze a recent white-collar crime case. It provides three questions to address in a 3-5 page paper: 1) Examine elements of the crime and determine if it qualifies as a white-collar crime. 2) Identify the relevant law and portions related to the case. 3) Analyze public support for the defendant and the outcome. The paper should debate how the Department of Justice may view the behavior and potential effects on justice. Academic sources are required.

rationale to support your position.

infringed upon, and identify three of the most significant
portions of the law related to this case. Provide support for your
rationale.

others in society and why. If the actions are supported, analyze
to what degree they are and analyze the significance of this
support. Then, give your opinion as to whether the defendant
got the intended outcome as a result of the defendant’s actions.
