Answer to Question 1

TRUE

Answer to Question 2

o White-collar crimes are not an official category of the Uniform Crime Report.
White-collar crimes are financial activities that are characterized by deceit and
concealment that do not involve physical force or violence like other types of crime.
White-collar crimes use different techniques from property and violent crimes. Property and violent criminals use physical means to commit their crime and are usually in a location they are not lawfully allowed to be. White-collar criminals usually have legal access to the place where the crime occurs. They are also usually separated from the victim, the victim is often unknown, and they behave in a manner that appears to be legitimate. Common techniques used by white- collar criminals include deception, abuse of trust, and concealment.

Early clockmakers apparently thought that the IIII balanced out the VIII (used for the number 8) on the clock face and that it just looked better.
