The Waterloo Police Department has arrested several area residents who have been involved in a money laundering case that began in 2008. The case involves members of a criminal network who opened bank accounts, made deposits and then moved money around to different accounts using "starter checks" and "debit cards."  By using multiple transactions, some of the accounts were used to purchase property and United States Postal Service money orders. With the assistance of the United States Postal Inspection Service it was discovered that members of the criminal network purchased eighty-two money orders in excess of $50,000 in an attempt to hide the funds. The activities of this criminal network resulted in over $125,000 in losses to local banks.
