Maine troopers stop truck, find false logbook ... and $1M cash YORK, Maine — State police say a routine roadside safety check on the Maine Turnpike led to the discovery of more than $1 million in greenbacks. Maine Public Safety Department spokesman Steve McCausland says the episode unfolded with the discovery of a falsified driver's log during the routine truck inspection Friday. He says a subsequent inspection of the trailer revealed U.S. currency estimated to be in excess of $1 million. McCausland says the driver, 35-year-old Jhon Rivera-Ramirez, was arrested for the logbook violation. Troopers say the smuggling of bulk currency is a preferred method for criminals to move illicit proceeds across borders. It is a crime to cross the border with more than $10,000 in undeclared currency. www.bangordailynews.com/story/Portland/Maine-troopers-stop-truck-find-false-logbook-a-1-million-in-cash,152978
