The stacking of charges seems ridiculous.
Basically he is getting multiple charges (and potential sentence time) for the same crime.

- lalopalota 4y agoThanks for the info. I was curious why conspiracy to commit money laundering is 20 years and money laundering is 10. Still, something about the process seems "unfair" to me.
