Wasn’t it Louissianna where if you got stopped with a couple of thousand dollars in your pocket they took the money and said it was drug money?

That’s not confined to Louisiana. Any cop can steal whatever money you have on you and call it drug money.

[Blood of Tyrants]

That is nation wide. Under Rico laws all the cops have to have is a suspicion that the money MIGHT me related to drugs and they can and will take it.

Not just Louisiana but just about any department where corruption abounds. Funny how the “evidence” disappears on these cases.

Don't know for sure but Florida does it all the time, they seem to favor highways that cross the peninsula east to west or vice versa.

There is a Parish (County) where they were using this technique to fund the annual budget. They would randomly stop (mostly out ot state vehicles) and confiscate money and bling...rarely finding any real contraband.
