However, Mr De Lange scoffed at the hypothetical example of a drugs dealer claiming his Ferrari against the proceeds of his crimes.

"No, he would have to prove that he needed the car to transport the drugs and I hardly think he would transport them in a Ferrari."

.
Leaving aside the decision as a whole, which appears worthy of our 9th Circuit, isn't £1,400 rather pricey for a bank-robber's pistol?

VAT strikes again. Personally, as an ax murderer, I'm all for this - now I can deduct all my ax-related expenses.

Beat me to it.

The best pistol IMO I've ever shot I was told runs about $750(400 pounds). It was a Dan Wesson 1911 - and I nearly bullseyed everything the first time I shot it.

Too bad I can't afford it, but that's another story.
