Yeah... I hate to say this but the only way I see this being corrected would be them (DOJ) seizing something and either lose it or mishandle it and it turns out to be some rich guy who was innocent. Then that guy takes them to court and this then gets bundled in with some criminal justice reform bill

I'm sure that was the supposed rationale, but it was just another example of government plunder.

I could be mistaken and if so let me know! Wasn’t one of the reasons it has become so common was because they were catching people and not freezing their assets and those people who were later convicted and ordered to pay restitution made there assets disappear?

I feel like I remember reading about that and so the government started doing the forfeiture stuff to try and prevent this from happening… could be completely wrong though!
