Who cares. Asset forfeiture doesn’t require a charge to be filed against anyone.
I say if this tactic is good enough to screw someone accused of growing a pot plant, it’s good enough to screw another group of people that the government doesn’t like.
Whether we agree with the homes taken from those who raise pot plants or not, the idea that the home of approximate 600 individuals most of whom are guilty of nothing should be taken, does trouble me.
The government in this case who says they care about their well being, seems perfectly willing to steal these children’s collective assets.
It would also trouble me if the home to 600 people, a few of which had some pot plants were taken.
In fact, it would trouble me a great deal if a single family dwelling were taken after a few pot plants were found.
If we’re talking about a home that isn’t being used as a dwelling, and is being used to cultivate pot, I’d have little problem with it.
