Under Florida law, it’s knowingly conducting a financial transaction with proceeds from unlawful activity, regardless of the original criminal source. Examples are laundering money from drug sales or tax fraud. Penalties depend on the amount laundered. Under $20,000 is a 3rd degree felony, $20,000-$100,000 is a 2nd degree felony, and over $100,000 is a 1st degree felony with up to 30 years in prison. Civil and criminal penalties are possible.
The best defense is claiming lack of knowledge the money was from an illegal source. But other options exist if that fails. An experienced lawyer can explore defenses or negotiate a plea deal or lesser sentence. Self-representation usually leads to worse outcomes.
