"The lawsuit said Prieto does not like banks and customarily carries his savings as cash."

Nonsense.

I think it's probable cause to confiscate it, but there should be a very low bar of "proof" and expedited procedure to get it back.

So possessing cash is a crime?

In the land of the free and home of the brave you see mere possession of cash as probable cause for confiscation?

Un-freepin-believable.

You are really a scarry person and I can’t believe you consider yourself a FReeper. Isn’t it a fairly fundamental principle that the government has to prove a crime beyond a reasonable doubt? Freeper you are not. Nanny state loser, you are.
