Money Laundering Charges in Texas
San Antonio Money Laundering Defense Attorney
Money laundering refers to the process of concealing financial
transactions. Various laundering techniques can be employed by
individuals, groups, officials and corporations. The goal of a
money laundering operation is usually to hide either the source
or the destination of money in connection with a criminal act.
A person can be charged with money laundering if suspected of
receiving, concealing, possessing, transferring, transporting or
having any interest in the proceeds of criminal activity. In
fact a money laundering charge can be filed against a person
that has almost anything at all to do with the proceeds of a
criminal act. In Texas, money laundering charges have varied
penalties depending on the amounts involved:
1. Value from $3000 to $19,999 = third degree felony (2-10 years
in prison plus a hefty fine if convicted)
2. Value from $20,000 to $99,999 = second degree felony (2-20
years in prison plus a hefty fine if convicted)
3. Value from $100,000 and up = first degree felony (5 to life
years in prison plus a hefty fine if convicted)
