Money laundering is a serious criminal allegation, and a skilled, knowledgeable Colorado criminal defense lawyer is required to defend one so accused.
In certain circumstances, one may be charged with money laundering if he or she conducts or attempts to conduct a financial transaction involving monies which are the proceeds of a criminal offense, with the intent to promote or conceal a criminal offense, or to avoid having to report the proceeds under federal law.
Also, one may be charged with money laundering if he or she transports, transmits, or transfers money with the intent to promote or conceal the commission of a criminal offense, or to avoid having to report the proceeds under federal law.
One may also be charged with money laundering if he or she intentionally conducts a financial transaction represented as the proceeds of a criminal offense, or involving property the individual believes was used to conduct or facilitate such an offense.
Money laundering constitutes a class 3 felony.
