All should read this. The second part in particular.

When it comes to forfeiture actions (which I agree are severely abused) surely everyone knows the PD does not make the decision, right? The prosecutor brings the action and a judge signs off on it.

Again, people not found to have violated any law should not have their property taken but blaming the cop is like blaming the price of gasoline on the guy driving the tanker truck.

The cops make the decision to get the money seized by calling it in.
