1Opinion of the Court
EDMONDSON, Circuit Judge:
James Mullis appeals his conviction for money laundering on the ground of insufficient evidence.1 We affirm the conviction.
To show that Mullis laundered money, the government must prove that Mul-hs took part in a financial transaction with money he knew was obtained illegally and with the intent to promote the illegal activity or with intent to disguise the source of the money. See 18 U.S.C. § 1956. In reviewing a claim of insufficiency of the evidence, we view all evidence in the light most favorable to the government. United States v. Poole, 878 F.2d 1389, 1391…
