Money Laundering Is Rarely Charged In Isolation
Although it is possible, money laundering is rarely charged as a singular or isolated offense. In most cases, it is charged as an investigative tool or in addition to offenses related to organized crime or illegal activities, such as:
- Fraudulent business transactions or activity
- Drug trafficking
- Interstate transportation of stolen property
- Embezzlement
- Tax evasion
- White-collar crimes
Even when underlying charges have been dismissed for lack of evidence or another reason, prosecutors often choose to continue to pursue a conviction for money laundering.
