this isn't a DEM or a REP issue. this is a government issue. anyone who supports these laws hates freedom and believes in a police state.
There is no reason for this type of rule. A warrant isn't hard to get. In fact, they might be too easy to get in many cases. People love to cry tyranny and bitch and moan about a whole host of innocuous shite. This isn't innocuous, and we hear almost nothing about it.

No kidding. If she is filling her taxes quarterly would a forensic accountant not be more effective? That way if there is laundering going on you can trace it. Take the money and the roaches scatter.

This is why you never deposit cash in the bank.

I'm sure the charge will be structuring, aka smurfing, which is a violation of 31 USC 5324

“Structuring,” as readers may recall, is the federal criminal offense of splitting up bank deposits so as to keep them under a threshold such as $10,000 above which banks have to report transactions to the government. Structuring is unlawful whether or not it occurs in conjunction with any other legal offense, as opposed to being motivated by, say, a desire to keep a low profile in general or a sentiment that the government already keeps tabs on too many innocent activities.
...or because your Mommie told you to do it!

This is an issue that the right (or left) should be talk sing about everyday.
First of all the Government should have to have more to go on than simply X amount of cash to suspect a crime. This is a direct result of the War on Drugs and an excuse for politicians and officials to not do the job they are being paid to do.
At the very least the amount should be adjusted for inflation. It sounds like this woman was having to make multiple cash deposits to stay under the $10k limit. In a predominantly cash business, like a restaurant, $10k probably makes almost all successful owners a criminal in the eyes of the IRS...adjusted for inflation that number should be be about $40k today.....a number that most small business owners would have no trouble staying under.
