6. Pink Collar Crime

May 21, 2024

Pink-collar criminals are mid-level employees that embezzle from the workplace. People like Sandy Jenkins, the mild-mannered comptroller at the world-famous Collin Street Bakery. And Rita Crundwell, the former comptroller for the City of Dixon, Illinois. Sandy liked the finer things in life. Rita bred American quarter horses. They both embezzled millions from their employers. In this episode, Pink Collar Crime, A Study in Crime speaks with fraud consultant Kelly Paxton.
