White Collar Crime

White collar crimes are non-violent crimes and are normally financial in nature. White collar crime usually refers to crimes where someone financially gains through stealing of some sort. Some examples of these crimes include embezzlement, where a person takes money based on being in a position of trust, or securities violations, such as insider training, where someone uses their knowledge of a corporation that is not public for financial gain in stock trading. White collar crimes are often felonies, even though they are not violent. In most states, the determination of whether or not a white collar crime is a felony depends on the value of money that was allegedly taken. Usually, a good example of this would be for theft, where amounts stolen under $1000 are a misdemeanor and over $1000 is a felony.
