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.

That cop had a nice holiday!
All they have to have is a believable story…
s**t like this happens all the time…civil forfeiture was a boon to law enforcement since it was implemented in the 80’s, they steal your money and good luck getting it back, because you won’t; how do you think they pay for all their cool toys?
All the facts, remember lies, travel faster then the truth….
Ray Fisher, that only applies if a person(s) going outside the U.S. or coming into the U.S. without declaring it…..
Hey it could have been just pot money lol
What the$#%&!@*money is illegal in America leave us alone
The land of Lincoln and Obama. No surprise to me. My family had 2 cops in it. Still, if a cop stole my money, and it is stealing, I would hunt them down and kill them .They are nothing but crooks wearing a uniform when they do this.
Then they ought to just follow rapper’s and ball players to strip joints.
