It has been scaled back quite a bit in the last decade or so thanks to Enron's Jeff Skilling and "media magnate" Conrad Black (since pardoned) and seems to have fallen out of favor with prosecutors. The "Kids for Cash"[1] people were charged with it but didn't make it into the final plea agreement and Rod Blagojevich (also since pardoned) was charged with it but I think those charges were eventually dropped.
