A former TD Bank employee has admitted accepting bribes to help a money-laundering network move $26 million from the U.S. to Colombia.

Oscar Marcel Nunez-Flores, 34, worked as a “sales leader” at a TD Bank branch in Union County, New Jersey. He accepted payments ranging from $500 to $2,500 to open more than 60 bank accounts for a criminal network, according to the U.S. Attorney’s Department of Justice.
