Six years for moving $18mil. Lol. Must be nice to have that kind of cash. Meanwhile my mate got six months for stealing a sausage roll from the dairy. What a joke.
facts. and your mate probably didn't have a fancy lawyer. system's rigged.
so he forfeited $3.3m but moved $18m? where's the rest? probably sitting in some offshore account. police patting themselves on the back for this one.
cos prosecuting the big fish is hard. but yeah, feels like they just take what they can get and call it a win.
Ye 'Cathay' Hua more like Ye 'Catch Me If You Can' Hua. Only got caught cos he got sloppy. These guys always do.
I know it's tough but at least they got something. Better than nothing I guess. Hopefully the money goes back to community programs.

Sad that good people are struggling while criminals move millions. Glad they got some of it back at least. Hope the drug dealers he helped feel the consequences too.
ffs $3.3m forfeited after years of investigation? That's rookie numbers. Wonder how much it cost taxpayers to run that probe. Probably more than they recovered.
reading this on my morning commute and just shaking my head. these guys live different lives. i cant even afford a pie.
lol exactly. they love a good press release. 'look what we did!' while the rest of us pay for it.
moved money for drug dealers and got six years? seems light tbh. should've been a decade minimum. sends the wrong message.
yeah nah get stuffed. he'll be out in four with good behaviour. joke of a sentence.
