Patrick Willmott, 36, was the last of the group of five accused of conspiring to cause a loss to the Commonwealth and deal with the proceeds of crime worth more than $1 million still awaiting his fate on Tuesday morning.
The NSW Supreme Court jury delivered the guilty verdict after its 72nd note of the trial was delivered to Justice Anthony Payne.
Four others - Adam Cranston, his younger sister Lauren, Dev Menon and Jason Onley - also received guilty verdicts this month.
Justice Payne thanked the jury after the trial, which began in April 2022, finally ended.
"I said to you at the outset that you were the most important people in the courtroom and I think you now know why," the judge said.
"Thank you, for your concentration, your efforts, punctuality and attention."
Those who served on the jury will not have to serve on another jury for 20 years unless they want to, Justice Payne ordered.
