A search was conducted of Han's residence and law enforcement found a money counter, multiple firearms, more than $1.1 million in cash that was concealed in cookie tins inside of a drop ceiling in the basement and about $200,000 in cash in vacuum-sealed packaging in the basement closet.
Han was arrested in June 2018 after he received about $192,000 in money that was represented to Han to be drug money. Han was in possession of a loaded firearm at that time.
On Thursday, a jury convicted Han on all four charges against him — including one count of conspiracy to commit money laundering, one count of attempted concealment money laundering, one count of conducting a financial transaction with funds represented to be drug proceeds and one count of operating an unlicensed money transmitting business. Han also has to forfeit about $1.5 million in cash, four handguns, a 2016 Mercedes-Benz, a 2015 Dodge Grand Caravan and an iPhone.
