>Tetley has already pled guilty to operating an unregistered money transmission business and exchanging around 80 BTC for $70,000 in one transaction that prosecutors allege involved the proceeds of drug trafficking, according to court documents. coindesk.com/la-woman-faces-30-months-in-jail-over-illegal-bitcoin-business/
Lincoln Sanchez
hows that her fault
youre just selling bitcoins why would you give a fuck where your customer got their money from
i know i wouldnt give a fuck so id already be in jail too then for some reason you cant control
basically she just bought and sold bitcoin trying to avoid taxes and eventually got tripped up by a federal agent doing a sting.
Jace Mitchell
if you sell your BTC irl and the buyers tells you the money is from an illegal activity you are basically about to busted in a sting. Politely decline the transaction and walk away.
Juan Barnes
GOOD. Hopefully even owning crypto is soon punishable by jail time.
Oliver Myers
it became her fault when the buyer told her "I have tons of drugs in my possesion and I sold some of them to get this money, now please give me bitcoins in exchange so my money can be clean"
Logan Reyes
so the fbi were just complete dicks and told this innocent women who just wanted to sell bitcoins that they got the money from drugs and then promptly through her in prison
wow
>"I have tons of drugs in my possesion and I sold some of them to get this money, now please give me bitcoins in exchange so my money can be clean"
SOO?????

you shouldnt go to jail when youre not the one selling drugs

Jason Lopez

>Person trades money for drugs. >Gets caught >Goes to prison >wellnoshit.avi
money for drugs is still drug money and some drugs are illegal- Once bitcoin is commonplace in society this will be pretty fucking common
dont do drugs kids.
Logan Nelson
She didn't trade money for drugs, dumb fuck. She basically helped people launder dirty money and didn't care.
Thomas Thompson
Fuck off Kike-lover, she conspired to sell a asset for money- fuck Mr Shekelstein, come the day of the oven, you'll be joining your filthy Jew friends in the ashtray
Jacob Perry
Drug money. Are we being invaded or something or is the signposting just getting worse.
