Exactly! Why can his assets be seized if he's not suspected or even arrested? How can his assets be guilty if HE isn't?
His explanation as to its origin is suspect,IMO
You are missing the point, as I am beating my head. If I go to a horse auction and I know there is a $120k horse there and three relatives chip in to get this horse and I have to pay cash at the time of sale. There is NO law saying I can't have that cash on me. None. No where.
let this be a lesson to all...if you're on the level in your life keep your money in the bank and use checks like other "on the level" folks in this country do.
I am an "on the level" folk and I see no problem in dealing in cash. The only people that have a problem with cash are on the government payroll because they want every transaction traced, docuemnted and taxed.
I'm not saying this guy is guilty or innocent of anything. From the brief details in the article, he wasn't charged, arrest or convicted of anything. BUT, the government will take your money/assests just in case you are guilty, and besides we need the cash.
Innocent until proven guilty. This guy was not proven guilty. HE WASN'T EVEN CHARGED WITH A CRIME.
And his does the police action not deprive him, the person, of his property? The Constitution wasn't written to protect property--it was written to protect people from thieves like those who conspired to steal Mr. Gonzoles' money.
