“What about all their cash, personal belongings and legal weapons that were confiscated? They are gone to the accused.”

Now you’re just making stuff up. When you are arrested, personal property that you had in your possession is returned to you when you are released.

Maybe, maybe not. Especially cash if they think it was from a “criminal enterprise”. Most likely none will ever get their guns back. No, I am not making stuff up. It is you who are uniformed.

In many cases the only way to get property back is to sue the police. So the rightful owner has to incur more costs due to the action - often more than the asset is worth.
