Waterloo, Iowa – A money laundering investigation revealed that money was being transferred from Waterloo to a drug organization in Mexico. The investigation led to the arrest of two other individuals in connection with the case.
It has been confirmed by Waterloo Police that Samuel Monroe and Rylee Wenman, both from Waterloo, were taken into custody shortly after the arrests of three other individuals, Richard Mohorne, Megan Heying, and Mark Sayles, earlier in the month of July.
The two-year investigation discovered that proceeds from sales of meth were sent to an organization in Sinaloa, Mexico through wire transfers at money transfer businesses in Black Hawk County.
