A comment on Justin Amash Introduces Bill to End Civil Asset Forfeiture Nationwide. Parent comment
ANY funds taken by the criminal justice system should NOT be able to be used by the criminal justice system.
Those funds should either go to a victim or be placed in an "overfund" that gets distributed back to the citizens of the state at the end of the year.
This would stop all manner of abuses, including civil forfeiture.
