Question Type: ESS
*a. Answers vary; Crimes by workers in sales-oriented occupations—includes
crimes by retail workers, restaurant employees, automobile mechanics, insurance
sales people, and so on. The employee’s job centers around selling goods or services,
and while their offenses may center around the act of selling items and ripping off
consumers, in other instances the offenses include crimes against the employer
(retail theft, stealing food in restaurants, etc.).
Crimes in the healthcare system—includes crimes by doctors, nurses, pharmacists,
employees of hospitals, nursing home employees, and other employees in the health
care industry. Whereas some of these offenses target patients receiving care (e.g.,
theft from patients and patient abuse), others target the insurance system (e.g.,
Medicaid and Medicare fraud and insurance fraud).
Crimes in the criminal justice system—includes crimes by police officers,
prosecutors, judges, defense attorneys, and corrections employees. Examples
include corruption, bribery, collusion with offenders, theft from offenders, and so
on. Crimes in the political system—includes crimes by local, state, and federal
government officials such as bribery, corruption, and engaging in unethical
activities. Researchers have also discussed khaki-collar crime (crimes by members
of the military that are handled as military crimes) and state crime (crimes by
governments) as examples of crime in the political system.
Crimes in the religious system—this includes both financial and physical offenses
perpetrated by church officials against members of their church. Not all
criminologists agree that crimes by priests, such as the widespread child sexual
