Rest of story makes it even worse for the flunky FBI. Well worth a look.

Now seize Nasty Piglosi’s fortune because there’s no way she can have mega-millions of dollars on a Congressional pay!

The judge told them to seize the store but NOT THE CONTENTS of the boxes because there was no proof of wrongdoing. They were explicitly told NOT to do what they did. THEN they were told top return the contents to the owners.

That may be but it wants me to turn off my ad blocker and that's not going to happen at a lefty paper.

I guess the 6th Amendment doesn’t apply to cash.

And this same government now wants banks to let the IRS know about bank transactions for accounts having over $600. This is banana republic stuff.

Liars, cheats and thieves... Defund the FBI.

[Basket_of_Deplorables]

Defund The FEDERAL Police!!!

For the longest time, civil forfeiture has been abused. Way back in 1993, I objected to this practice because it was ripe for corrupt practice. At that time, I still assumed America was not corrupt.

Silly, naive me.

Safe deposit boxes are only safe for the bank and Gov agencies.

And the government should be charged with Criminal Theft.

Hell, that excuse would work for anyone in Congress.

You want proof?

I sold paintings to anonymous buyers.

Illegal seizure of property!! I hate this law!!

Long ago narcotics units were doing everything to seize drug money. Used use the paper bag search. Line up 5 or 6 bags dog would alert to the one with the drug money. The money bag was usually placed in the same place. Dog would go right to it and sit.

And then a study comes out saying that some ridiculous amount of money on the street has drug residue on it.

Ergo, the paper bag test was done with.

For many agencies, asset seizure/forfeiture has become a business of sorts.

This lady in Seattle was traveling back to her home country I think it was Vietnam.. All her friends gave her money to take back to give to relatives.. Anyway she misspoke to customs about how much money she had on her.. They found the money about 60,000 and confiscated it.. She had to sell almost everything to pay back her friends!! They kept the money customs did..
