And it's corrupting... There was a case in CA where the owner of property had some pot plants growing on the property. There was no evidence that it was cultivated, just growing wild. When the sheriff dept came to seize the property, he objected, and they killed him.
The state of MO had to sue to KCPD because they were breaking state law when doing drug busts. According to state law, the state gets any property seized during a drug bust. But when the DEA does a drug bust, they share the booty with any local lae enforcement agencies involved. So the KCPD would do everything, right up to the bust, then call in the DEA to actually conduct the bust, "stealing" the "booty" from the state.

I think you’re referring to the dentist (Scott) whom the police targeted simply because of the value of his property (over $2 million). They shot him at the top of the stairs after they “no knocked” his home.
It’s made the police partners with the drug dealers and money men.
