The only one I can think of was Anthony Levandowski for stealing Waymo's trade secrets but he was pardoned a few months later.

That's not really a similar crime; that's a crime against another corporation.

Even still, the guy got a pardon after 33 federal charges and pleading guilty to one of them. The average person would never get even a hint of a chance at that (or, frankly, such a tiny sentence -- 18 months, 6 served before pardon).

Rich white dudes have a lot of empathy for other rich white dudes.

Not similar, but https://www.justice.gov/usao-ndca/pr/former-netflix-executiv... I am not really sure if he was arrested yet, or ever.
