I don’t think anyone want’s drug dealers to go prosecuted.

The issue is the law abiding American’s are having their Constitutional rights abused in the zeal to make drug money confiscations. This is what boils down to in the end. Money. Money that is seized in the process of drug raids.

Contraband money that is used to pay salaries, buy equipment, and pay pensions.

Example:

Confiscated drug money awarded to Alabama State Troopers, Tuscaloosa Sheriff’s Department

U.S Attorney Joyce White Vance of Birmingham today awarded $1.3 million to the Alabama Department of Public Safety and the Tuscaloosa County Sheriff’s Department.

The money was discovered and confiscated during a July 2008 traffic stop.

Sorry, that should be ‘unprosecuted’. You break the law, you go to jail.
