CHICAGO (CBS) A man was sentenced to 14 years in prison Tuesday for having drug proceeds picked up in Chicago and laundering them through China to have them sent to drug traffickers in Mexico.
Prosecutors said Xianbing Gan schemed in 2018 to have about $534,206 in narcotics proceeds picked up in Chicago and then transferred to various bank accounts in China – with the money ultimately intended for the drug traffickers in Mexico.
Unbeknownst to Gan, an undercover law enforcement agent was posing as the money courier who picked up the drug proceeds in Chicago.
