That is true about presumed innocence in a criminal prosecution, but these are civil forfeitures. And forfeiture has been a part of this country’s legal system since its beginning.
Straw man alert! The only reason for this so called civil forfeiture is presumed criminal activity. Some earlier witling made some comment about drug dealers etc. Didn't see any drug dealing here did you? This is nothing less than an end run around the constitutional protections by armed robbers in uniform.
