Abstract:
Originally a sound and useful tool for criminal justice, Civil Forfeiture has become a ‘revenue enhancement’ tactic that invites abuse.You’ll love this book if you’ve ever been fleeced by a speed trap. If someone close to you is involved with drugs, you need this book. Are you a public functionary charged with raising big money without alienating too many tax-paying voters? Please read this book - and keep it from coming true. All it would take are a few dangerously overzealous bureaucrats and a poorly chosen victim family with the courage, resources and skills to crush them.
