When we think of white-collar criminals, most of us probably imagine an accountant carrying

a briefcase.

They may steal our money, we tell ourselves, but they would never get violent.

The FBI and law enforcement do the same thing.

They define white-collar crime as non-violent crime committed for financial gain.

But there is another subgroup of offenders who are almost never discussed in mainstream

media.

The ones who kill.

These are the red-collar criminals.

They start out just like any other white-collar criminal by committing financial fraud.

They start a Ponzi scheme, laundering money, blackmail someone, steal money from their

boss, or connollyver out of their life savings.

But when someone finds out about their fraud, or worse, threatens to expose it, red-collar

criminals turn on the people closest to them, and they'll do anything to cover their

tracks.

And if that means murder.

Join me, Catherine Townsend, for a new weekly series that will take a deep dive into

different cases of red-collar crime.

These are the real-life American psychos, and they are hiding in plain sight all around

us.

And as you listen, you'll find yourself asking, could I have a red-collar criminal in my

office, or maybe even living in my house?
