The Transactional Records Access Clearinghouse (TRAC), a Syracuse University joint research data center, has been creating reports on the case-by-case Department of Justice Data every year and recently found 2022 marked an all-time low since tracking began during the Reagan administration. TRAC found 4,180 white-collar defendants were prosecuted during 2022’s fiscal year, which ended in September.
