So offenses that are easily caught don't get committed? I don't follow you. To the contrary, many people who commit such offenses (talking now in the abstract) delude themselves into thinking they are above the law, will get away with it, etc. I see it time and again -- just as one example, smoking gun memos instructing employees to obtain phony sales in order to create the appearance of higher revenues.
