Product Description 
Federal Money Laundering: Crimes and Forfeitures, Second Edition provides an in-depth analysis of the federal money laundering statutes and related asset forfeiture provisions, annotated with citations to the leading judicial decisions on the elements of each offense. It is designed to give the practitioner insight into the force and breadth of the money laundering and currency reporting offenses and related forfeitures, their application in a wide variety of factual situations, and the ways in which nuanced and controversial issues have been resolved by the courts. Comprehensive in scope, this one-volume treatise covers the money laundering statutes in title 18 of the U.S. Code, the currency reporting and bulk cash smuggling provisions in title 31, and the civil and criminal forfeiture provisions that apply to both sets of offenses. 
 The authors have been significantly involved in litigation related to money laundering and asset forfeiture for over 30 years. Each of them served as a federal prosecutor in the US Department of Justice and all have continued to participate in the litigation of money laundering cases and the development of the law in other capacities as authors, lecturers, attorneys in private practice, and in one case, as a federal judge. Their collaborations with other prosecutors, agents, defense attorneys, judges, academics, and legislators on investigations, prosecutions and legislative efforts allow them to bring the reader all the benefits of their experience to this always relevant area of law.
