<i>The FBI&#x27;s Uniform Crime Reports tally a burglary when it is reported, but a while collar crime only when an arrest is made.</i><p>There&#x27;s some justification for this: It&#x27;s very common to say &quot;a burglary has clearly occurred but we don&#x27;t know who is responsible&quot;, but with white-collar crime it&#x27;s almost impossible to know whether an act was illegal until you&#x27;ve identified who did it.
