According to CriptoNoticias, a Costa Rican court sentenced two men to 12 years in prison each for money laundering. The case involves the 2018 kidnapping and murder of American businessman William Shawn Clayton Kopke, whose family paid a ransom of approximately 148 bitcoins at the time, valued at around $1 million. The court determined that the two defendants received part of the ransom and deposited it into wallets under their control to conceal the source of the assets.
