This is nothing more than the boys in blue profiting from these seizures from citizens who have not been convicted of any crime...or charged with any crime. This is CORRUPTION — NOTHING LESS.

For all the good Ronald Reagan was, this was his worst idea with the best of intentions.

Just tear up the constitution; it don’t mean squat anymore.

This year, Montana became the fourth state to overhaul what activists call "policing for profit." Beginning July 1, officers must store suspects' assets, such as the cash Ayala had in his trunk, until the owner is convicted of a crime involving that property.

That can be arraigned pretty quickly.

Sine relevant points from the article:

Ayala's license plates were expired, his driver's license was suspended and he should have been driving with a breath-alcohol ignition device.

Despite finding no drugs the state petitioned to keep the cash. District Judge Brenda Gilbert sided with the state and ordered Ayala to relinquish the money on Oct. 27, 2014.

Don't agree with what they did, but it wasn't "the state" or "the cops" that were responsible. Thank good Judge Brenda.
