Again, I don't like the law, but if you've got $10k in cash on you and you cannot validate the source of those funds, there is in incredibly high likelihood it is from illegal sources.


Not easy to do. If you saved a little cash in your home safe that accumulated over years into $12,000 how would you prove its not drug money? You take the cash out the house to go buy whatever(car, boat, mower, etc) and stopped by police and they find that cash, you are shite out of luck.

Well whatever you do with it is going to require federal reporting in the first place. Try bringing $12,000 in cash to your bank and see if they just take it with no questions asked. Federal money laundering laws are incredibly strict.

Why would you have to prove it's not drug money? The burden of proof is on the prosecution to prove it IS drug money, not on the accused that it isn’t. One doesn't have to prove his innocence.
