There's ample evidence that Bouldin was actually driving to Colorado to purchase marijuana products, hence cash.
Still though, Colorado has ATMs. Maybe he didn't want to leave paper trail by withdrawing large amounts on cash outside of his home-state, I dunno.
Also, marijuana still being federally illegal in 2023 is a joke.

- mdasen 3y agoAccounts generally have a daily withdrawal limit at ATMs. If you're traveling with $18,000 in cash, that's probably well above what you can withdraw from an ATM in a day. I think a lot of accounts have ATM limits of $300-1,000 per day. I'm sure there are ones that are higher and I think a lot of banks let you request a higher limit, but I think it's probably more than just a paper trail. Personally, I'd never travel with that much cash, but I could see withdrawing that amount of cash having potential road blocks if your bank doesn't exist in the state you're traveling to.
