   U.S. Court of Appeals Case No:  19-3448
   U.S. District Court for the Eastern District of Missouri - St. Louis   
[PUBLISHED] [Colloton, Author, with Wollman and Shepherd, Circuit Judges] Criminal case - Criminal law. The district court did not err in denying defendant's motion to dismiss the indictment for lack of venue or to transfer venue to another judicial district; taking the allegations of the indictment as true, there was venue in the Eastern District of Missouri to try the allegation that defendant conspired to commit money laundering in the Eastern District of Missouri and elsewhere; the court did not err in refusing to transfer venue to the Central District of California based on the factors that the investigation occurred in St. Louis, all of the relevant documents were in St. Louis, witness expenses would have to be paid if the case were tried in California, and defendant's attorney was from St. Louis.
