In a surprising turn of events, a 90-year-old South Korean woman has been handed a one-year prison sentence for her involvement in a money laundering scheme with her incarcerated son. The woman, whose identity has not been publicly disclosed, was found guilty of assisting her son in the laundering of drug proceeds while he was serving time in a Cambodian prison.
