Extractions: Web Design by Honolulu, Hawaii White Collar Crimes WHITE COLLAR CRIME Unlike most "common law" crimes (murder, burglary, rape, assault and battery, etc), in white collar cases there is generally evidence that the client was involved in the activity charged. The question for the jury is often, "was the activity a crime?" White collar cases may be charged in state and federal courts. In white collar matters there are unique opportunities to win the case if the client cooperates with counsel and has resources for expert witnesses and attorneys fees, access to relevant records, and has a creative attorney who "thinks outside the box." White collar cases require attention to detail and a challenge to conventional thinking and a willingness to challenge the system itself. Those are our trademarks. If you are contacted by the FBI, Secret Service, IRS Special Agents or Inspector General Agents, you should seek counsel immediately. The attorney's actions prior to indictment or arrest often can be as important as the actions taken after indictment. Among other white collar crimes routinely investigated and defended by Wyatt are: Embezzlement

Extractions: Participants in globalization debates have perhaps not fully recognized the extent to which globalization is already being challenged by problems it has itself aggravated. These problems, or "pathologies," of globalization relate not to its impact on social or economic values external to the logic of globalization, but rather affect some of the very business practices and processes that drive it. CSIS has launched a coordinated set of projects focusing on three pathologies of globalization: corruption, counterfeiting, and cyber-fraud. These pathologies pose challenges not only to the pace and direction of globalization, but also to the security of thousands of jobs, to privacy rights, and to equity.

Extractions: Behind Closed Doors As you move through the traffic display, you will come around a corner to find a large cabinet with doors that close. It seems almost hidden away and if you're not careful you could walk right by without even seeing it. Actually, it's another display and it was designed this way because it deals with crimes that are not obvious to the average person. You might say that these crimes take place 'behind closed doors.' White-collar crime A hostage taking Can you spot a criminal? White-collar crime You may occasionally hear reference to 'white-collar crime.' This refers to crimes that are less visible and more sophisticated. These crimes often involve detailed plans, schemes or lies, and are often carried out by people who don't fit the usual criminal stereotypes. Some examples of these crimes are counterfeiting, fraud, and kidnapping. If you come to the centre, you will find a display of counterfeit money. There's a magnifying glass on hand so you can compare it to real money and find the differences. You'll also be able to read about some scams that have happened in Calgary. A scam is a crime that involves tricking people into believing something that is not true. Usually, in a scam, people will give money to a criminal, thinking that they are actually making a charitable donation, or purchasing a legitimate product or service. A hostage taking The Behind Closed Doors display also covers a hostage taking that took place in the early 1970s. This is a case of white collar crime because the men who were found guilty of the crime were both stockbrokers. The two armed men broke into the house of a banking and insurance executive. They threatened the occupants, tied up the elderly housekeeper and kidnapped the daughter. They stuffed the teenager into the trunk of a car and demanded $500,000 for her return.

Commercial Crime detectives focus on white collar crime These detectives investigate significant economic or "white collar" crime. The offences investigated are complex, often requiring the auditing of financial, business or personnel records.

Extractions: Follow the trail of one company's hypothetical E-mail message: A rogue partner fires off a flaming E-mail message to the company's administrator describing a staff member as "that old F-rt whose time has definitely come." In this instance, the E-mail system was configured to store copies of outgoing messages on the sender's hard drive as well as the file server. In addition, when a message was read by the addressee, it was automatically save to the addressee's machine until purposely deleted. The message, residing on the server, was swept into a monthly backup, where it was stored on a backup tape for a year. Luckily, the sender did not make use of the E-mail's broadcast feature, but even so, the disastrous message was now in at least four locations. One of the file copies was found, produced during discovery and presented to a jury in an age discrimination action. The above case illustrates the pitfalls of E-mail. It is just as likely that a key piece of evidence could have been located within a long "destroyed" memo, or perhaps in a note to the file that was backed up and preserved on tape.

Extractions: This means that for almost every data file created (e.g., a WordPerfect, or MS Word file), you will have at least one other copy of the file somewhere on the system (e.g., the ubiquitous BKI or BAK file). Routine backup procedures generate yet more copies, and individual users may have their own ad hoc backup procedures. More disturbing still is the fact that electronic data, even when erased, can usually be recovered. A command to "delete" a file will not destroy the file's contentsonly the file index (File Allocation Table, or FAT) is changed. Imagine a drawer filled with labeled file folders. Removing a file label makes the locating difficult. However, the folder itself remains intact, in the drawer...awaiting its discovery by a determined investigator. While DOS can no longer easily find the data, many software utility programs can get deleted files back in their entirety. (continued on page 4)

Extractions: The illegal transfer of money or property that, although possessed legally by the embezzler, is diverted to the embezzler personally by his or her fraudulent action. For example, an employee would embezzle money from the employer or a public officer could embezzle money received during the course of their public duties and secretly convert it to their personal use. Perjury is the crime of intentionally lying after being duly sworn (to tell the truth) by a notary public, court clerk or other official. This false statement may be made in testimony in court, administrative hearings, depositions, answers to interrogatories, as well as by signing or acknowledging a written legal document (such as affidavit, declaration under penalty of perjury, deed, license application, tax return) known to contain false information. Although it is a crime, prosecutions for perjury are rare, because a defendant will argue he/she merely made a mistake or misunderstood. Theft is the generic term for all crimes in which a person intentionally and fraudulently takes personal property of another without permission or consent and with the intent to convert it to the taker's use (including potential sale). In many states, if the value of the property taken is low (for example, less than $500) the crime is "petty theft," but it is "grand theft" for larger amounts, designated misdemeanor or felony, respectively. Theft is synonymous with "larceny." Although robbery (taking by force), burglary (taken by entering unlawfully) and embezzlement (stealing from an employer) are all commonly thought of as theft, they are distinguished by the means and methods used and are separately designated as those types of crimes in criminal charges and statutory punishments.

Extractions: Intellectual Property Section (CCIPS) Internet-related crime, like any other crime, should be reported to appropriate law enforcement investigative authorities at the local, state, federal, or international levels, depending on the scope of the crime.
