             (f) Banner Bank account ending in 6528 for K.J.M.W. and Douglas Arnold

                 Wold containing $7,577.12;

                 5A7BB2322KT000147.

      The Defendant agreed that the speedboat and trailer also constitute property

involved in the money laundering offense, Count Thirteen.

      Nexus and Factual Basis for Forfeiture

      Based upon the Plea Agreement, filed April 7, 2021, the defendant admitted that the

Subject Property was proceeds of his schemes, and derived from proceeds, and that the

speedboat and trailer also were involved in money laundering. (ECF No. 18 at 8.) The

defendant pleaded guilty to three counts of the Indictment: Count One, a violation of 18

U.S.C. § 1343, admitting that he committed wire fraud, by depositing false payroll checks

into his own bank account; Count Twelve, a violation of 18 U.S.C. § 1341, admitting that

he committed mail fraud, by receiving checks by U.S. mail for false and fraudulent

invoices, which he deposited into a bank account he controlled; and Count Thirteen, a

violation of 18 U.S.C. § 1957, admitting money laundering by knowingly using criminally-

derived proceeds to purchase the above speedboat and trailer. (ECF No. 18 at 3-5.) The

Court sentenced the Defendant and entered Judgment. (Judgment, ECF No. 44, further

hearings pending for restitution determination.)

       Statutory Authority

       The Court’s forfeiture authority for mail and wire fraud originates from 18 U.S.C.

§ 981(a)(1)(C) through 28 U.S.C. § 2461(c), which provides that, when imposing sentence

on any person convicted of a violation of 18 U.S.C. §§ 1341 or 1343, the Court, shall order

the person to forfeit property, real or personal, that constitutes or is derived, directly or

indirectly, from proceeds traceable to the commission of the offense.           For money

laundering, 18 U.S.C. § 982(a)(1) provides for forfeiture of property involved in or

traceable to the money laundering offense.

       The Court’s Additional Findings

       The Court FINDS that the record and pleadings reflect the following.

       The United States caused notice of the above-referenced forfeiture order to be

published and sent in accordance with the requirements of Federal Rule of Criminal

Procedure 32.2(b)(6)(A). This included publication on an official government internet site

(www.forfeiture.gov). See Criminal Rule 32.2(b)(6)(C) and Rule G(4)(a)(iv)(C) of the

Supplemental Rules for Admiralty and Maritime Claims and Asset Forfeiture Actions.

       No claims were filed.

       The Court’s Orders

       The Court therefore ORDERS the following.

       The Motion for Final Order of Forfeiture (Dkt. 48) is GRANTED.

       The Court directs the United States Attorney General (or a designee) to seize all of

and vested in the United States. No claim of interest in said property shall exist in any

other person or entity. Said property shall be disposed of according to law.

       All parties herein shall bear their own costs and fees.
