For your second assignment, you will analyze a real-life white-collar crime.
- Review the white-collar crimes listed on pages 150-155. I’ve attached a PDF if you do not yet have your book.
- Then, research a news story involving one of those crimes. Write a brief summary of the facts.
- Locate the federal statute that was violated (or alleged). Include the text of the statute.
- Analyze whether the facts satisfy the elements of the crime.
- State whether the defendant was convicted and, if no information is available, state whether you think the defendant is guilty.
Your completed assignment should be at least 4-5 paragraphs long. Please cite any sources you used, and be sure to write in complete sentences with proper grammar, punctuation, and spelling. (Do not use ChatPT)
