You are grossly misinformed as to what the law actually says
“
Criminal forfeiture is an action brought as a part of the criminal prosecution of a defendant. It is an in personam (against the person) action and requires that the government indict (charge) the property used or derived from the crime along with the defendant. If the jury finds the property forfeitable, the court issues an order of forfeiture.”
The fact that it is misused in the current day says that someone has allowed a law to be overreached and that further court action and congressional action is necessary.
It is the nature of unintended consequences that one set of people living in a time far different than the current one did not mean for the law to be used the way it currently is....e.g. the EPA, the Dept of Education, etc etc etc
It is NOT Reagan’s fault that there are slim buckets misusing a law
Apparently you just skimmed over my original post. Go reread it please.
In particular PAY ATTENTION to the part where I say Reagan can be forgiven for it because he did called for it in all earnest.
Did you even really read the post? Because reply #1 you didn’t seem to know what you’re talking about and reply #2 you’re all a sudden an expert and assume I know nothing about it. I know plenty.
