With respect to Ken White, that’s a load of crap. Between AUSA’s, FBI, CJA’s, FD’s, and judge’s office, at least $0.3M in my case and counting.

- Waterluvian 8y agoThat's kind of the point. When they go after someone they're going to spend the money. No point spreading resources so thinly that they can't prosecute anyone properly.
- mchannon 8y agoThat’s the opposite of your first point. When they have no trouble spending the money, they have no trouble spending the money.
- jstarfish 8y agoYes and no. White collar crimes are very expensive to investigate, prosecute, and keep the attention of the jury. High-profile clients and attorneys invite a lot of red tape, expensive to cut through, so they don't bother unless conviction is certain. Failure is embarrassing and makes the State look weak. But Ken White is living in a bubble if he thinks the State won't spend the money to go after any low-hanging fruit it can reach.
- tptacek 8y agoHe said exactly that: it's shocking how few criminals get prosecuted. Like, at all.
