I don't really understand the logic here. If you've received a donation, you can't be forced to return any money, specially if you didn't know it had dubious origins

If the money is stolen (as is the case in the articles' story), then yes, you can be legally compelled to return the money to its original owner.
Source will be appreciated. What if the money has already been spent? Do they track it all the way through or just one level?
Yes that is reasonable. What I know is from an account by a relative here in Spain, and it depends on the lawyer. Of cours, infinitessimal amounts compared to the money being talked about here
