7 0

Answer:

This is most likely the definition of white-collar crime.

Explanation:

It was sociologist Edwin Sutherland who, in 1939, first came up with the definition for white-collar crime: "a crime committed by a person of respectability and high social status in the course of their occupation." Therefore, this type of crime is usually associated with jobs that possess a high status in general society's mind, such as doctors, businessmen, attorneys, etc. Common examples of white-collar crime are embezzlement, money laundering, and fraud.
