The money goes into the budgets o the expropriating agencies which sometimes have deals with the City or County governments to share

That is an obvious conflict of interest, is unethical and should be illegal. The FDA and Justus Dept. are now addicted to billion dollar fines as well. The routine fines are now just a normal cost of doing business and a normal funding source for the beast. Consumers pay for it via much higher prices. Companies incur billions more expenses implementing preventative measures, but that just annoys the government.

Yet another example of the predictable consequences of electoral politics and voting.

Legalized theft. Where are Republicans???

Asset forfeiture laws allow us to take the ill-gotten gains of drug kingpins and use them to put more cops on the streets and more prosecutors in court.

In the last 5 years alone, the Justice Department shared over half a billion dollars in forfeited assets with State and local law enforcement.

“Note that Dinesh D’Sousa has come to the conclusion that the Gov’t LEO organizations are criminal enterprises.”

States need to take it to the next level and declare federal fascist agencies as state-sponsored terrorists, and then act accordingly to wipe them out.
