He argued that if upheld on appeal, the fine may signal less leniency in white collar/corporate crime. White collar crimes are non-violent and victims are hard to identify. Blue collar crimes are violent, and a hands-on crime, rather than more of a paper offence, like white collar crimes. London argued the terms show there is a snobbishness in those distinctions. If the fine stands, he believed it was a sign we may becoming a more adult society, and punishing those that have used their position in insidious ways. <01mn 17s>Language:EnglishNotes: -
