Nice try at slight of hand. The answer is; Because they know they would lose and they want to spend their time with a case they think they can win. Know what that proves? Absolutely nothing. Even the ACLU must get tired of tilting at windmills after a while. The ACLU guy also said it was a “terrible terrible law”.

What "slight of hand"? I admit it proves nothing in of itself. However, it heavily, HEAVILY leans towards "ill gotten" money. That being said, you still seem to believe he has no recourse, that his money has been stolen, and he's powerless to stop it. Not only has a police officer, IN THIS THREAD, completely refuted that, the damn ACLU lawyer has as well. You are, like many others here, willfully twisting facts to vilify the Feds. It's shameful.

“What “slight of hand”?

You are ascribing the ACLU’s not jumping to his defense as proof the the system is fair, rather than to the actual reason that the ACLU knows the system is wrong but that it is a lost cause that they don’t want to waste time fighting.

“it heavily, HEAVILY leans towards “ill gotten” money.”

Fine. I agree. Charge him and take him to trial. Why is that so hard?
