Content: This transaction or set of transactions must be shown to total more than $5,000 over a seven-day period OR more than $25,000 over a thirty-day period. However, simply performing those transactions is not enough for a money laundering conviction. It must also be shown that you intended to make that transaction (or series of transactions) for the purpose of carrying out or funding an illegal activity. One way that the prosecution can prove this is by showing that you made the transaction with full knowledge of the “dirty origins” of the money. Click to contact our criminal defense lawyers today
Activities Considered Money Laundering
Activities that are illegal to fund—and thus are often cited in money laundering cases—include terrorism, human trafficking, drug trafficking, organized crime, child pornography, extortion, embezzlement, violent crimes, sexual crimes, and more. This means that paying for those activities—or using money obtained through those activities to invest in other financial endeavors in an effort to “launder” or “clean” the money—is considered money laundering.
