This video and transcript of two presentations at the National Institute of Justice's (NIJ's) "Research for the Real World" series focus on the investigation and prosecution of white-collar crime, the role of corporate ethics in America, and what policymakers and attorneys can learn from evidence of fraud.

The second speaker is Dr. Sally Simpson, the chair of criminology and criminal justice at the University of Maryland.
