Investigative planning: creating a strong foundation for white-collar crime cases



Few individuals would feel comfortable constructing a building without blueprints or plans. This holds particularly true when the structure is complex, will take years to construct, and will be expected to stand the test of time. Construction experts know that without thorough planning, they may miss or unnecessarily repeat important steps.

Ironically, many law enforcement officers have no qualms about hastily building cases with little or no planning, expecting their investigations to weather attacks by defense counsels and survive years of appellate review. And, given their complexity, white-collar crime cases especially require thorough, documented investigative plans.
