White collar crime, while criminal in nature is hard to define
primarily due to the public attitude toward this type of
action. Around the mid 20th century when trying to establish
credibility for the research into this type of crime, Edwin
Sutherland had to convince criminologists that the lawbreaking
actions of the rich were actually crimes. During that period and
before, crime and criminal behavior was considered something
only the lower class committed. From the way the rich were
arrested to how they were prosecuted, everything differed from
the typical criminal (Reurnik, 2016).
Beginning with a number of scandals in the 1970s and then
funding and grants in the 1990s, a number of criminologists and
law enforcement began to recognize the danger and reality of
white collar crime and criminals. In most cases, the general
public looks at a career thief as a criminal and the thief is proud
of their status. A white collar criminal rarely sees themselves
as a thief and the public usually sees them as an otherwise
upstanding person who makes mistakes Reurnik, 2016).
Because of this lackadaisical attitude by the public and the mis
conception of white collar crime, it does not garner the attention
from law enforcement and statisticians.
