Re: escort service and money laundering
If there is evidence that the business is running illegally, yes, you can be charged. (Technically, you can be charged even if there isn't any evidence, but it would be very rare and very unethical, and I've never seen it happen.)
In all my years as a prosecutor and all my (even more) years as a defense attorney, I've never seen anything that even comes close to a "legitimate" escort service.
