2015 Environmental Crimes Top the List

December 29, 2016 //  by Greg Cafouros

The most likely federal offenses faced by U.S. companies are for environmental crimes, per a recent report by the U.S. Sentencing Commission.  http://www.uscourts.gov/news/2016/12/22/environmental-crime-tops-list-organizations

In fiscal 2015, environmental crimes accounted for nearly one-third of all offenses by corporations, partnerships, trusts, nonprofits, etc., followed by fraud (21%), food and drug violations (12%), antitrust violations (7.7%) and import/export violations (6.1%).  Convictions increased by 12% over this period, with 97.8% of those charged with crimes pleading guilty. The Environmental Practice Group at KGR can help you and your business if and when the need arises.
