It is common for crimes committed by corporations to be blamed on individuals within the corporation, rather than the corporation itself. This can be due to a variety of reasons, including the fact that corporations are often seen as having unlimited resources and therefore the ability to defend themselves against legal action. Additionally, because corporations are often large and complex, it can be difficult to pinpoint who is responsible for any given crime. As a result, it is often easier to blame the crime on an individual within the corporation rather than the corporation as a whole.
