“Slams” Hardly a legal term. If nobody goes to prison, a slam is as real as praise. They mean nothing in a legal case.

Too bad they can’t just keep it all. Or will they.

Well.... if they are forced to destroy all the records, how is anyone going to prove what the FBI stole ?

Organized government and organized crime are merely 2 sides of the same coin.

When the government ran the Mafia out of the liquor and drugs business so they could run it themselves, the Mafia went into politics and law enforcement and the DOJ.

It wasn’t the “FBI”

The order was given by a single person. That person has forfeited his (her) right to life.

Some of it was “lost” and there are separate lawsuits for that.

Which means that the FBI guys get to keep the stolen items, and the TAXPAYERS will have to reimburse the original owners.

What should be done is to take any reimbursements and legal fees out of the BUDGET for the FBI.

Is that because you think they PAID that much for the collection? That you think they have too much disposable income and therefore must be guilty of something ?

I thought they returned it all?

Everything EXCEPT for what they declared as LOST. Accidents happen on the way to the evidence locker.

This worries me because I use a private vault to store things when the wife and I go on vacation. It works great and is cheaper than a lock box at our bank (if they had one big enough for my stuff available ).

The last time I used it, I asked the owner about this FBI raid. He said he does background checks using information from the rather lengthy application form, but then ended up saying the FBI can do pretty much anything it wants to.

The people will not get their property back, because the people conducting the crime were just common criminals with government credentials.

What, exactly, do you wonder? I easily have more than $5k in my safe deposit box.

“We also must create a campaign to revoke qualified immunity for federal agents, judges and prosecutors.”

Simple solution. States give all residents qualified immunity when dealing with the federal government.

Are they going to get it?

In reality, probably not. The government will have made copies of copies. But the principle is important.

The government should not be able to riffle through your stuff without a warrant.
