This is a hard fact to approach with justice in mind, and troubles a lot of the US discourse on crime and policing.
Yes, if non-white-collar crime is policed effectively, it disproportionately affects people from underprivileged backgrounds. However it also disproportionately benefits those in the same sociological group.
The real win would be successful rehabilitation and less lethal policing, in my opinion.
