White collar crime is notoriously more difficult to investigate and prosecute than blue collar crime, because the perpetrators usually have more education, time, resources and tools to cover their tracks than average street mugger or rapist. And furthermore, it is much more difficult to maintain public interest in such stories, because they are more complicated and seemingly have less impact on the lives of Joe Sixpack than stories about ordinary murders and rapes.
When such stories get public attention and wheels of justice begin to turn, it is usually due to dimensions of such crimes being too big to ignore and/or perpetrators stepping on some powerful toes (like Bernie Madoff). Or due to "happy" coincidence, like Harvey Weinstein and Jeffrey Epstein going down due to investigations which were originally intended to get Trump.
