Piracy on the Interstates by law enforcement rival the piracy of the Somali's on the Indian Ocean.

That.'s a lot of money grinding away for 15 years. Now she'll be subject to all kinds of scrutiny brought on by the seizure by having her name brought public and will have to defend the money a few more times.

It was 15 years of savings, she may have been paying taxes.

Some strippers make black book money with out doing back book acts. They just get the drunks to think there's more to the champagne room then champagne.

If you can strip for 15 years and avoid all the stripper traps, you can make bank.

A million in 15 years isn't really that much. $67k per year? Yeah, a stripper (or anyone with an equally high-paying job) could easily save that.

Question arises: why do cops think other people's money is theirs? Is it illegal to be in possession of money? Should we notify the police for an escort before hand so that they can take it? WTF....

It's called Civil Asset Forfeiture and it's a blight upon the various law enforcement agencies of this supposedly free county. Here's a good (long) article about it. Gamblers are very vulnerable to these kinds of shenanigans, due to often times using lots of cash.

I'm glad she got her money back; usually these stories don't end that way.

One of the lessons is try NOT to deal in cash. In her case, again I'm glad she got the money back and it was rightfully hers. But if everything is on the up-and-up, there is no reason not to use a bank account and a cashier's check for this specific circumstance.

Haven't read the article in one of the previous posts yet, but I guess throw out everything you thought you learned in school, ie, Innocent until proven Guilty, etc, etc, etc.

Absolutely true. But there's nothing wrong with asserting something is a constitutional right while also warning people to not make the same mistake and have common sense.

I know a cop whose main directive is to confiscate property using the drug laws. He has a longer explaination for it to rationalize it to himself (probably part of the b.s. his superiors feed him), but what it comes down to is to find a reason to stop people that "look like druggies" and get them to agree to a search of the vehicle and their person as well as any passengers. If anything is found, they can impound the car and all the personal property and it will go to auction to finance the police department and the city. (After due process, of course - usually a plea of some kind.)

Watch out folks! We are only a step or two away from a police state where everyone is guilty of something and we'll have to buy our "innocence."

Tell the cop if you see him that treetopbuddy says **** ** ******* ****.*******.......decode that math guys.

The above example falls under "reasonable suspicion". Which essentially gives law enforcement carte blanche. Trust me. "Warrantless searches and safety sweeps" are also widely popular with our "first responders".

Perimeter searches with sniffer dogs, very popular with the men in blue. "Come on Leo lets go get some bad guys, I need an adrenaline fix" Cameras litter the interstates throughout the country.

"Watch out folks! We are a step or two away from a police state where everybody is guilty of something and we will have to buy our "innocence". I have approximately 36K reasons and probable jail sentence to prove we are already there.

Nice post skrbornevrymim
