Money Laundering Alert
is a monthly newsletter that specializes in the coverage of this
particular problem. It believes the money laundering problem is
a growing threat to the U.S. economy. The lead article in the
June 2000 issue said its analysis of TRACFED data showed that
from 1994 to 1998 there had been a decline in the number of matters
referred by the agencies to federal prosecutors where the lead
charge was Title 18, USC 1956, a key law in the government's effort
to combat money laundering.
