We are living in a time when the due process protections of the Fourth Amendment are more important than ever.
Back in 2012, couple Adam and Jennifer Perry were speeding down an Illinois highway to reach a hearing specialist based in Salt Lake City, Utah who was supposed to treat an ear infection afflicting Adam. Their high speed drew the attention of state troopers, who pulled the couple over.
After a drug dog sniffed the Perry’s car, police searched their vehicle. They turned up empty-handed, with the only thing vaguely resembling the drugs they were looking for being a duffel bag that officers claimed smelled of marijuana.
But they found something else: $107,520 in cash, belonging to the Perrys’.
The officers let them go, but they kept the cash, even though the Perrys’ weren’t charged with a crime or even subject to a search warrant.

Do you wear a foil hat?
You should have to be charged with a crime in order for them to seize your money!
You must be a communist sympathizer
Maybe Dayne, you Luke enslaving others and murdering black American babies.
All those who support obama and his laws are unconstitutionality; and will be held accountable with blood on their hands for the support of such hainous acts of murder and enslavement innocent children and people.
Someone please justify and tell me that Obama is worth the 70 million he used of tax payers money for family vacations during his presidency thus far. This of course isn’t counting the numerous times golfing and the security cost for him and his family that mounts to over a billion. Please someone show me or prove to me that he is worth that much grief, pain and suffering for the American citizen, who now suffers from 50% tax reductions; from the lack of employment or good paying jobs, where black America suffers from 50% unemployment and many Americans, as well as military, don’t have the ability to take care of themselves or their families. How can any selfless man ever abuse such privileges?
More like an armadillo…..
You can hate on cops for this but to have 107,000 cash is a little suspicious to me
It’s a crime now to have over $20.00 because most ppl are broke these days and the economy suck !!!!
So much for due process.
