Fugitive of the Week: Alfredo Salomon Ochoa |

Money Laundering Conspiracy
Mark Anthony Figueroa was convicted of one count of conspiracy to commit money laundering.
Figueroa used secret deliveries of cash to launder drug trafficking money. Once currency couriers received the laundered cash from Figueroa, they transferred the funds into Mexican accounts and exchanged it for pesos. Mexican drug cartels could then use the money to pay for narcotics sold in the United States. Between February 2019 and May 2020, Figueroa's money laundering transactions totaled more than $580,000.
Following a three-day trial, Figueroa was indicted by a federal grand jury in November 2021. Find out more about this conviction by accessing the full story below.
