Also, this guy gets 5 months. How long does an 18 year old with a nickel bag get?

Between 2006 and April 2012, the enterprise laundered approximately $100 million in proceeds from their gambling operation in Russia and Ukraine through shell companies and bank accounts in Cyprus; and of this $100 million, approximately $50 million was subsequently sent from Cyprus into the United States. Once the money had been transferred to the United States, it was either laundered through additional shell companies or invested in legitimate investments, such as hedge funds and real estate.

The two most prominent owners of Bank of Cyprus? One is Donald Trump’s associate Dmitry Rybolovlev. The other is Donald Trump’s new Secretary of Commerce, Wilbur Ross.
