White Collar Crime Laws in Idaho

There is no single law against white collar crime. This term is actually a generic descriptor that covers an entire range of possible offenses. Typically, an offense in this category involves some sort of intentional malfeasance that has to do with a business, corporation, investment, or similar entity or thing.

Examples of white collar crimes include:

According to the Idaho Legislature's site, most of these crimes fall under the legal category of theft since they involve illegally appropriating money or property from another person or a legal entity such as a company.

Penalties for White Collar Crime Convictions in Idaho

Since most white collar crime constitutes some type of theft according to Idaho law, we will present that state's penalties for theft. If the amount in question is under $1,000, the crime qualifies as petit theft. Penalties for this, are a fine of up to $1,000 and up to a year in the county jail.

When is White Collar Crime a Felony in Idaho?

The cutoff value for theft to become the felony known as grand theft is only $1,000. Most white-collar crimes involve amounts higher than this. This means that if you're convicted, you'll most likely become a felon.

Penalties for grand theft in Idaho can be quite severe. Fines go up to $10,000, and you can spend up to 20 years in a state prison. You can be both fined and imprisoned for the same crime. You must spend a minimum of 1 year in prison if convicted of grand theft.

Notably, if the amounts in question are under $1,000, but are obtained as part of an overarching scheme (such as a Ponzi scheme), they are added up and charged as grand theft.

There are several other possible penalties for theft in Idaho, with the details of the crime determining the specifics. It is important to talk to a lawyer to learn the exact possibilities for your case.
