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.

106. Pieper Lewis - Teen Victim of Human Trafficking Ordered to Pay $150,000 to Family of Her Alleged Abuser
Pieper Lewis made headlines in November 2022 when she cut off her GPS tracker and fled the Fresh Start Women's Facility in Des Moines, Iowa. Pieper was arrested at the age of 15 for stabbing 37-year-old Zachary Brooks after he allegedly sexually assaulted her multiple times. At the time, Pieper was a runaway and sex trafficking victim. She confessed to killing Zachary and was sentenced to 5 years supervised probation, 1,200 hours of community service, and was ordered to pay $150,000 in restitution to his family. Pieper has pleaded not guilty to the escape charge.
