From the article about Ohio and cockfighting:
“Lisa Kauffman, the Idaho director for the Humane Society, said such rings are more common than most people think and may be used by traffickers to launder drug money.”
Can someone explain to me how laundering money works through an illegal activity? I thought the purpose of laundering was to make illegal funds look legitimate?
