I am of the opinion that Civil asset forfeiture should only be executed as part of a sentence and only after the conviction of a crime.

I would venture to say that most of this cash was confiscated because it was undeclared.

At the very least it should go into an escrow account and the authorities should have to show cause within seven days. No legitimate claim it should be released with prejudice.

Civil asset forfeiture is nothing but highway robbery. Until you are convicted by a jury of your peers...that’s YOUR money. Disgraceful.
