Answer:

<u>True</u>

Explanation:

Edwin Sutherland was a sociologist who spend most of his career developing theories of criminal behaviour. He was the first one to study and publish articles about white collar crime.

His work broadened the field of criminology and led to the study of more than just street crime.  He developed the phrase ' White collar crime' in 1939, after studying 15 American Utility companies and 70 major corporations. He was sure that crime wasn't limited to the streets only but the respected and well educated individuals also committed crime.

White collar crime is the crime motivated by financial gain and committees by a person of respectability and high social status, their in  no violence in  such crimes but they are motivated by greed.
