I'm glad the cash was seized pending an investigation. What investigation?
There was no investigation. The cash was seized under the asset forfeiture laws.
No investigation, no crime, no arrests, no charges.
Just steal the money.
There's a serious problem when law enforcement can break the law without cause and get away with it. Kinda like the FBI and FISA court. They break the law, destroy people's lives, no one gets penalized and they do it again and again.
They aren't getting the money back...it's probably already gone.
