Attempted Murder is a crime - so is attempted bribery and extortion.

I'm not sure what your point is.

the point is that this shit is turning into Minority Report.

It’s one thing to accuse someone of attempted murder when they actually tried killing someone, it’s another thing to accuse someone of attempted murder for suspecting them about thinking about killing someone.

Unfortunately for your argument, the defendant did not think about laundering drug money, they did actually launder what they believed was drug money.

Thinking isn't a crime. Doing is.

It’s a sting operation
