BALTIMORE (AP) -- A federal judge in Baltimore is ordering M&T Bank Corp. to forfeit $560,000 in drug money laundered through a branch in Perry Hall.
U.S. Attorney Rod Rosenstein announced the forfeiture Wednesday.
The judge found that the bank failed to file reports on at least eight currency transactions in which a teller converted proceeds from illegal drug sales from small denomination bills into $100 bills.

And where does the $560K go? To fighting the War on Drugs, no doubt.
Wells Fargo laundered TRILLIONS un drug money and got a slap on the wrist. Obviously, M&T is not one of the favored few.
