lukewarm take: there probably isn’t a ton of white collar crime being knowingly committed, because these crimes eventually result in visible, problem-causing business outcomes than can’t be buried. Finding these crimes when they’re just starting out, before the consequences of the crime start boiling over is like sifting for a needle that may or may not exists in a vast haystack of hard-to-publicly-access documentation. Short of a well-staffed IRS, the best way to spot these crimes is probably AI-based auditing of tax filings, payroll documents, and any other accounting documents filed with the local/state/federal government.

if it’s systemic injustices you’re interested in— well, for the most part they’re quite legal. white collar crimes are recognized as crimes only because they significantly impede profitable business over the long run.
