Institutional Justice and Institutional Fairness Lessons from The Adventure of the Veiled Lodger
In this new season of Adventures in Compliance, host Tom Fox takes a deep dive into Arthur Conan Doyle’s Sherlock Holmes collection, The Case-Book of Sherlock Holmes. It is the final set of twelve Sherlock Holmes short stories, first published in the Strand Magazine between October 1921 and April 1927. In this episode, we consider the story The Adventure of the Veiled Lodger.
Tom emphasizes the importance of fairness and transparency in compliance investigations, accountability without retaliation, encouraging whistleblowers, and addressing systemic failures. The episode also highlights how ethics and compliance must be ingrained in corporate culture, reflecting principles from the Department of Justice’s 2020 and 2024 updates to the Evaluation of Corporate Compliance Programs. Through Holmes’ empathetic approach, compliance professionals can learn the importance of contextual investigations and the pursuit of institutional justice. Fox invites Sherlock Holmes enthusiasts to engage in discussions about the stories and underscores the role of compliance in fostering a fair and ethical workplace.
Highlights Include
The Story of the Veiled Lodger
