This course provides law enforcement professionals with a comprehensive understanding of New Jersey’s money laundering statute. Using real-world cases and practical exercises, participants learn to identify, investigate, document, and support the prosecution of money laundering offenses.

The movement of illegally obtained funds is the foundation of nearly every criminal organization. To avoid detection by state and federal law enforcement, criminal enterprises continuously evolve their money laundering methods, leveraging new technologies to maximize profits while minimizing risk. As these methods change, so must law enforcement’s understanding of them.

This course provides a comprehensive review of N.J.S.A. 2C:21-25, Financial Facilitation of Criminal Activity, commonly referred to as money laundering. Participants will examine the criminal elements and relevant case law, along with the stages of the money laundering process and how to apply this knowledge when developing both investigative and prosecution strategies.

The program includes a detailed breakdown of each subsection of the statute, supported by real-world case examples and hands-on analytical exercises. Participants will also learn how to properly calculate and articulate the anti–money laundering profiteering penalty.

The course is taught using examples from successful money laundering investigations, providing students with practical tools and guidance to confidently investigate, document, and prosecute a wide range of money laundering offenses.
