A jury spent four hours before deciding Beidler helped convicted drug dealer
Wendell Wood hide his drug profits from the government.
However, the panel acquitted Beidler of eight related charges.

an Amherst real estate development.
Beidler avoided reporting the transactions to the government by making small
deposits into several different bank accounts.
Beidler claimed he never knew the source of Wood's money and was only trying
to protect his friend's privacy.
