    Often. Usually, I’d be willing to bet.

    I don’t know this for certain, but if a study were ever conducted on, say, the top 100 most commonly-committed crimes, I suspect the number of which you’re more likely than not to get away with would astonish you.

      I was a very, very bad teenager. I had my 5th felony by the time I turned 15. All in all, that’s a very small percentage of the felonies (and misdemeanors) I was never caught for. Nothing violent, but lots of vandalism, theft, etc.

      Wage theft accounts for more stolen money then all other theft combined, so this is bog standard true. Our very economic and legal system lets white collar crime go unpunished by design.
