The old "whack!.... Uh, sir, I pulled you over because your tail light is out, but since your being so cooperative with me today, do you mind if I just take a quick look through your trunk?"
It's none of the Government's business how much money I carry, in or out or around the country..............
Just see what happens when you try to deposit +$10K CASH in any US bank. The tax man will want to ask you some questions.
All goes back to 1913, the 16th ammendment and the loss of a nation from the people.
Please read #53, it was meant for you.

Or, his defense of one of the 5 men in Dearborn, Michigan who fraudulently obtained trucking licenses and were going to be hauling dangerous explosive chemicals.

Why choose this lawyer? I see no indication this man has ties to Michigan...

Didn't say it was illegal and maybe not alarming on its own. But it is concerning that a guy is traveling through Detroit from Nigeria carrying large amounts of money, nuke and cyanide information.
But I'm sure he has a perfectly good reason.
I read a article some time back that someone had analysed money, thousands of bills, from all over the US. Other than having every kind of germ/bacteria imaginable, every bill checked had cocaine residue...every bill.
"charged with concealing more than $10,000 in his luggage, which carries a maximum penalty of five years in prison...
Velcom to see Amerikan Reich! Jawohl
Now THAT is very interesting.
Yeah, I was wondering myself so I did a surname origin search. It came up Ethiopian.
You can absolutely refuse to be searched before boarding an aircraft. The airline will then refuse you boarding. Walking is the only method of travel that is a right not a privilege.
You don't need authorization, but you do have to declare it. (Which means that customs agents can pretty much seize your cash indefinitely.) Even if this guy is clean, he'll likely never see the cash again.
I've been stopped by cops and questioned while walking all by myself............
Good catch on the lawyer's history. One would assume that he was retained prior to the arrest as a safeguard. One would then wonder who else this scumbag lawyer (redundant, I know) has on his 'might call one day' list.
"... There's no way to rule innocent men. The only power any government has is the power to crack down on criminals. Well, when there aren't enough criminals, one MAKES them. One declares so many things to be a crime that it becomes impossible for men to live without breaking laws. ......just pass the the kind of laws that can neither be observed nor enforced nor objectively interpreted -- and you create a nation of law-breakers -- and then you cash in on guilt. Now that's the system, Mr. Reardon, that's the game, and once you understand it, you'll be much easier to deal with." - p.411, Ayn Rand, ATLAS SHRUGGED, Signet Books, NY, 1957
Rounding error. 18.4K + 59.2K = 77.6K. Round off for 18, 59, and 78.
Just delivering the first payment on the $million that his uncle left in a locked account.
The nuclear stuff was to prove that his uncle was chief of the Nigerian nuclear power installations.
