What if it’s $25,000 in $100 bills in a bag on the front seat, there are no illegal drugs and you’re on the way to buy a new car?

They will say that they believe it is drug money and take it. Of course you can appeal, but you won’t get it back. It has happened many times.
I used to live in a city where the cops carried their own evidence. "Well lookie here! A half gram of cocaine; right out on the seat in plain view!"
Many of them also carried a throwdown. "He resisted arrest..."
That happened before to some stripper that had saved her “tips” to buy a car. She took them to court but I don’t remember the outcome.
