White-Collar Crime
In contrast to "street crime," white-collar crime primarily refers to nonviolent
acts of deception that are typically associated with business. While
embezzlement by a bank officer or teller is a white-collar crime, armed bank
robbery is not. Embezzlement and false pretenses are defined by statute and
include several white-collar crimes. The majority are against state legislation.
Many of these same offenses are also violations of federal law, depending on
how they are committed. Federal law is violated by any fraud involving the use
of the US postal service, interstate phone calls, or Internet connections.
Similarly, federal securities laws may be violated by a variety of actions related
to the purchase and sale of securities. Tax fraud, price-fixing, breaking food,
medicine, and environmental regulations, corporate bribery of foreign
corporations, and—the most recent—computer fraud are further white-collar
crimes. While some of these are explored in later chapters, others are discussed
here.
Fraud via Mail and Wire
The use of the mail or any other interstate electronic communications medium
to facilitate a "scheme or artifice to defraud" is prohibited by federal law. Since
the statute is so expansive, it is comparatively simple for prosecutors to
establish a violation. The prosecutor does not have to prove that the scheme was
successful or that anyone lost money because the law also prohibits attempts at
deception. The term "fraud" is interpreted widely, meaning that anyone who
defrauds another person of anything—not just money—through the mail or
phone may face legal consequences. In one instance, a state governor who
accepted payments to sway the scheduling of races was found guilty of mail
fraud. He cheated the people of their right to his "honest and faithful services"
as governor, according to the court's theory.
The Food and Drug Act violations
Any individual or business that sends tainted or mislabeled food, medication,
cosmetics, or similar devices into interstate commerce is prohibited by the
federal Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act. For instance, Allergen was fined
criminally in 2010 for selling Botox as a pain or headache remedy, a usage that
the Food and Drug Administration had not authorized. Willfulness or
intentional wrongdoing is not a component of the act, in contrast to the majority
of criminal statutes. An executive may be held criminally responsible even if he
was not personally aware of the offense, as demonstrated by the United States v.
Park case (Section 6.7 "Cases").

cosmetics, or similar devices into interstate commerce is prohibited by the
federal Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act. For instance, Allergen was fined

to facilitate a "scheme or artifice to defraud" is prohibited by federal law. Since
the statute is so expansive, it is comparatively simple for prosecutors to
establish a violation. The prosecutor does not have to prove that the scheme was
successful or that anyone lost money because the law also prohibits attempts at
deception. The term "fraud" is interpreted widely, meaning that anyone who
defrauds another person of anything—not just money—through the mail or
phone may face legal consequences. In one instance, a state governor who
accepted payments to sway the scheduling of races was found guilty of mail
fraud. He cheated the people of their right to his "honest and faithful services"
as governor, according to the court's theory.
The Food and Drug Act violations
Any individual or business that sends tainted or mislabeled food, medication,
cosmetics, or similar devices into interstate commerce is prohibited by the
federal Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act. For instance, Allergen was fined
criminally in 2010 for selling Botox as a pain or headache remedy, a usage that
the Food and Drug Administration had not authorized. Willfulness or
intentional wrongdoing is not a component of the act, in contrast to the majority
of criminal statutes. An executive may be held criminally responsible even if he
was not personally aware of the offense, as demonstrated by the United States v.
Park case (Section 6.7 "Cases").

Fraud via Mail and Wire
The use of the mail or any other interstate electronic communications medium
to facilitate a "scheme or artifice to defraud" is prohibited by federal law. Since
the statute is so expansive, it is comparatively simple for prosecutors to
establish a violation. The prosecutor does not have to prove that the scheme was
successful or that anyone lost money because the law also prohibits attempts at
deception. The term "fraud" is interpreted widely, meaning that anyone who
defrauds another person of anything—not just money—through the mail or
phone may face legal consequences. In one instance, a state governor who
accepted payments to sway the scheduling of races was found guilty of mail
fraud. He cheated the people of their right to his "honest and faithful services"
as governor, according to the court's theory.
The Food and Drug Act violations
Any individual or business that sends tainted or mislabeled food, medication,
cosmetics, or similar devices into interstate commerce is prohibited by the
federal Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act. For instance, Allergen was fined
criminally in 2010 for selling Botox as a pain or headache remedy, a usage that
the Food and Drug Administration had not authorized. Willfulness or
intentional wrongdoing is not a component of the act, in contrast to the majority

Fraud via Mail and Wire
The use of the mail or any other interstate electronic communications medium
to facilitate a "scheme or artifice to defraud" is prohibited by federal law. Since
the statute is so expansive, it is comparatively simple for prosecutors to
establish a violation. The prosecutor does not have to prove that the scheme was
successful or that anyone lost money because the law also prohibits attempts at
deception. The term "fraud" is interpreted widely, meaning that anyone who
defrauds another person of anything—not just money—through the mail or
phone may face legal consequences. In one instance, a state governor who
accepted payments to sway the scheduling of races was found guilty of mail
fraud. He cheated the people of their right to his "honest and faithful services"
as governor, according to the court's theory.

Any individual or business that sends tainted or mislabeled food, medication,
cosmetics, or similar devices into interstate commerce is prohibited by the
federal Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act. For instance, Allergen was fined
criminally in 2010 for selling Botox as a pain or headache remedy, a usage that
the Food and Drug Administration had not authorized. Willfulness or
intentional wrongdoing is not a component of the act, in contrast to the majority
of criminal statutes. An executive may be held criminally responsible even if he
was not personally aware of the offense, as demonstrated by the United States v.

Fraud via Mail and Wire
The use of the mail or any other interstate electronic communications medium
to facilitate a "scheme or artifice to defraud" is prohibited by federal law. Since
the statute is so expansive, it is comparatively simple for prosecutors to
establish a violation. The prosecutor does not have to prove that the scheme was
successful or that anyone lost money because the law also prohibits attempts at
deception. The term "fraud" is interpreted widely, meaning that anyone who
defrauds another person of anything—not just money—through the mail or
phone may face legal consequences. In one instance, a state governor who
accepted payments to sway the scheduling of races was found guilty of mail
fraud. He cheated the people of their right to his "honest and faithful services"

establish a violation. The prosecutor does not have to prove that the scheme was
successful or that anyone lost money because the law also prohibits attempts at
deception. The term "fraud" is interpreted widely, meaning that anyone who
defrauds another person of anything—not just money—through the mail or
phone may face legal consequences. In one instance, a state governor who
accepted payments to sway the scheduling of races was found guilty of mail
fraud. He cheated the people of their right to his "honest and faithful services"
as governor, according to the court's theory.
The Food and Drug Act violations
Any individual or business that sends tainted or mislabeled food, medication,
cosmetics, or similar devices into interstate commerce is prohibited by the
federal Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act. For instance, Allergen was fined
criminally in 2010 for selling Botox as a pain or headache remedy, a usage that
the Food and Drug Administration had not authorized. Willfulness or
intentional wrongdoing is not a component of the act, in contrast to the majority
of criminal statutes. An executive may be held criminally responsible even if he
was not personally aware of the offense, as demonstrated by the United States v.
Park case (Section 6.7 "Cases").

Fraud via Mail and Wire
The use of the mail or any other interstate electronic communications medium
to facilitate a "scheme or artifice to defraud" is prohibited by federal law. Since
the statute is so expansive, it is comparatively simple for prosecutors to
establish a violation. The prosecutor does not have to prove that the scheme was
successful or that anyone lost money because the law also prohibits attempts at
deception. The term "fraud" is interpreted widely, meaning that anyone who
defrauds another person of anything—not just money—through the mail or
phone may face legal consequences. In one instance, a state governor who
accepted payments to sway the scheduling of races was found guilty of mail
fraud. He cheated the people of their right to his "honest and faithful services"
as governor, according to the court's theory.
The Food and Drug Act violations
Any individual or business that sends tainted or mislabeled food, medication,
cosmetics, or similar devices into interstate commerce is prohibited by the
federal Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act. For instance, Allergen was fined
criminally in 2010 for selling Botox as a pain or headache remedy, a usage that
the Food and Drug Administration had not authorized. Willfulness or
intentional wrongdoing is not a component of the act, in contrast to the majority
of criminal statutes. An executive may be held criminally responsible even if he
was not personally aware of the offense, as demonstrated by the United States v.
Park case (Section 6.7 "Cases").

Fraud via Mail and Wire
The use of the mail or any other interstate electronic communications medium
to facilitate a "scheme or artifice to defraud" is prohibited by federal law. Since
the statute is so expansive, it is comparatively simple for prosecutors to
establish a violation. The prosecutor does not have to prove that the scheme was
successful or that anyone lost money because the law also prohibits attempts at
deception. The term "fraud" is interpreted widely, meaning that anyone who
defrauds another person of anything—not just money—through the mail or
phone may face legal consequences. In one instance, a state governor who
accepted payments to sway the scheduling of races was found guilty of mail
fraud. He cheated the people of their right to his "honest and faithful services"
as governor, according to the court's theory.

federal Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act. For instance, Allergen was fined
criminally in 2010 for selling Botox as a pain or headache remedy, a usage that
the Food and Drug Administration had not authorized. Willfulness or
intentional wrongdoing is not a component of the act, in contrast to the majority
of criminal statutes. An executive may be held criminally responsible even if he
was not personally aware of the offense, as demonstrated by the United States v.
Park case (Section 6.7 "Cases").
Fraud via Mail and Wire
The use of the mail or any other interstate electronic communications medium
to facilitate a "scheme or artifice to defraud" is prohibited by federal law. Since
the statute is so expansive, it is comparatively simple for prosecutors to
establish a violation. The prosecutor does not have to prove that the scheme was
successful or that anyone lost money because the law also prohibits attempts at
deception. The term "fraud" is interpreted widely, meaning that anyone who
defrauds another person of anything—not just money—through the mail or
phone may face legal consequences. In one instance, a state governor who
accepted payments to sway the scheduling of races was found guilty of mail
fraud. He cheated the people of their right to his "honest and faithful services"
as governor, according to the court's theory.

Any individual or business that sends tainted or mislabeled food, medication,
cosmetics, or similar devices into interstate commerce is prohibited by the
federal Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act. For instance, Allergen was fined
criminally in 2010 for selling Botox as a pain or headache remedy, a usage that
the Food and Drug Administration had not authorized. Willfulness or
intentional wrongdoing is not a component of the act, in contrast to the majority
of criminal statutes. An executive may be held criminally responsible even if he

Fraud via Mail and Wire
The use of the mail or any other interstate electronic communications medium
to facilitate a "scheme or artifice to defraud" is prohibited by federal law. Since
the statute is so expansive, it is comparatively simple for prosecutors to
establish a violation. The prosecutor does not have to prove that the scheme was
successful or that anyone lost money because the law also prohibits attempts at
deception. The term "fraud" is interpreted widely, meaning that anyone who
defrauds another person of anything—not just money—through the mail or
phone may face legal consequences. In one instance, a state governor who

defrauds another person of anything—not just money—through the mail or
phone may face legal consequences. In one instance, a state governor who
accepted payments to sway the scheduling of races was found guilty of mail
fraud. He cheated the people of their right to his "honest and faithful services"
as governor, according to the court's theory.
The Food and Drug Act violations
Any individual or business that sends tainted or mislabeled food, medication,
cosmetics, or similar devices into interstate commerce is prohibited by the
federal Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act. For instance, Allergen was fined
criminally in 2010 for selling Botox as a pain or headache remedy, a usage that
the Food and Drug Administration had not authorized. Willfulness or
intentional wrongdoing is not a component of the act, in contrast to the majority
of criminal statutes. An executive may be held criminally responsible even if he
was not personally aware of the offense, as demonstrated by the United States v.
Park case (Section 6.7 "Cases").
Fraud via Mail and Wire
The use of the mail or any other interstate electronic communications medium
to facilitate a "scheme or artifice to defraud" is prohibited by federal law. Since
the statute is so expansive, it is comparatively simple for prosecutors to
establish a violation. The prosecutor does not have to prove that the scheme was
successful or that anyone lost money because the law also prohibits attempts at
deception. The term "fraud" is interpreted widely, meaning that anyone who
