What do you mean? The next largest LA heist was caught because they couldn't disperse of the cash properly [1]. It's hard to spend that much money with seemingly no income stream without the IRS raising a few eyebrows.
You would need a lot of planning and coordination on how it's spent and where it's spent to make it look legit. And have enough untainted income to live while you plan on how to spend the tainted stuff.

- BoardsOfCanada 3y agoFrom the article you linked it sounds more like a vehicle used to transport the money during or immediately after the robbery was what led the police to them. "Despite the daring robbery, what ended up solving it was not that exciting: An informant identified Hill as the person who rented a 14-foot U-Haul truck a day before the heist and had returned it a day later."
- gosub100 3y agoI find it hard to believe they could meticulously plan the tactical aspects of this heist but not plan for how to launder the loot. Since US cash is accepted abroad (and has more buying power) my guess is exporting it is the plan. If I were the cops I'd check Google maps records to see who was looking at the satellite view of the area before the heist.
