White-Collar Prosecutions Hit Record Low in January, Study Finds
By Chris Dolmetsch


Pursuit of white-collar crime continued to plummet as the third year of the Trump administration began, with the number of cases in January falling to the lowest level since a nonprofit organization began monthly tracking more than two decades ago. Federal prosecutors reported 337 new white-collar prosecutions in January, a drop of more than 20 percent from the previous month and the lowest since Syracuse University’s Transactional Records Access Clearinghouse started examining monthly totals in October 1998.
