The glamour model ex-girlfriend of boxer Joe Calzaghe is facing jail after being convicted of money laundering in a £100 million operation to smuggle cash to Dubai.
Jo-Emma Larvin, 44, took suitcases containing around £5m in cash through Heathrow Airport and on to flights to the United Arab Emirates in Autumn 2020.
Larvin, her partner Jonathan Johnson, 55, Amy Harrison, 27, and Beatrice Auty, 26, were all part of an operation to smuggle dirty money out of UK, knowing or suspecting it was the proceeds of criminal conduct as they agreed to act as “money mules”.
Larvin, who dated Welsh boxer Calzaghe for six years before they split in 2009, insisted during her trial that she believed the trips had been authorized by UAE embassy officials, and that the cases contained money and official documents.
But she was convicted by the jury of removing criminal property from the UK.
Judge Sarah Paneth released the guilty defendants on bail until their sentencing hearing.
