Thomas has been vocally opposed to these laws.
Scanning through it quickly-it seems the six are relying on a speedy trial already being included.
Some of the stories involving this like the LA private vault one are horrendous.
I tend to agree.
I believe this case is just not the “right” case to reign in civil asset forfeiture. The opposite ruling would perhaps entrench or reinforce the concept of forfeiture as being legally sound making it much harder to throw out altogether when the “right” case makes its way before the court.
