I’m confused about what law was actually broken here.

I read an article about this recently, the laws he was charged with have to do with illegally smuggling parts of a protected species into the US.

Thank you, this is a much better overview of the facts of the case. The sentence feels a bit harsh but I guess it was a conspiracy to break the law.
