Podcasts by Pink Collar: A True Crime Podcast
What exactly is pink collar crime? The term was actually coined by Dr. Kathleen Daly to describe embezzlement crimes committed by women. We aim to take pink collar crime a step further, focusing on any and all crimes committed by women.
Each episode, we present cases in which the offender is a woman. We compare the similarities and differences between the cases.
