What a Retired FBI Agent Says Defendants Always Get Wrong

Last week, I interviewed retired FBI agent Paul Bertrand, and his message was blunt: stop calling your crime non-violent or victimless. He's seen fraud victims lose everything—money, businesses, even their lives. And if there's no clear victim? The "victim" becomes the taxpayer, because federal resources were spent on your case. Bertrand believes sentences should be longer for white-collar offenders who dodge accountability. If you're facing charges, don't waste time defending labels—start preparing to show how you'll make things right. Join our weekly webinar every Tuesday at 11AM Pacific / 2PM Eastern to learn how to build that plan.
