Cops or Robbers?

I'm with palmetto bug. The dog could hike his leg up and piss on your tire and the officer could say that was a positive alert. Really your word against theirs

That amount of cash is nearing enough value to of had a chase care following the money car and creat a diversion
or crashed into the first patrol car. Auto accidents from rubber necking do happen you know

Wonder if if was a cool million but they reported finding 900k?

[cusportsman]

I bet that was the “decoy” vehicle for the real shipment of cash

I don't know anything additional about this incident, but this is less than a mile from my house...Monroe PD and Union County SO have been busting people left and right on trafficking over the last two years. They are on the look out and are pretty aggressive about this as we are so close to Charlotte and right off of 485 and 85.

Not saying I agree with it but, Civil Forfeiture laws. Federal law that allows seizure of assets without arrest that is a loophole in state law that requires arrest. Either way, I am sure there is more to this story than what is being reported. Interestingly, in NC no seized proceeds are supposed to go to the department unlike many other states.
To get the cash back the person involved has to show its lawful origin. Even in cases where persons involved have showed origin, they don’t always get all of the money back and pay their own legal fees.

We can thank foghorn leghorn for this. Probably friends of his.

agreed but you would at least give your lawyer something to work with
which is way better than saying, "I have never seen it and didn't know it was in my truck"

I take issue with the fact that even if you honestly didnt know about it, how does that make it theirs to take?

Constitutionally it doesn't, but they take it and they took his.
Alan Dershowitz (fine constitutional lawyer) should roll down here and tell em he'd get it back for 50%

I read a lot of books back in the late 70s and early 80s
