To add to that much of the property in
criminal cases isn&#x27;t claimed to begin with.
When they bust a drug stash no one in their right mind would claim ownership on neither the drugs nor the money seized.<p>That money will get into evidence and will normally be returned the the federal reserve, the program allowed the DOJ to appropriate a portion of that money and distribute it to local law enforcement agencies to increase their funding.<p>Money and other assets will still be seized and they will still not be returned to the criminals they were seized form even if they do not go to trial this might seem unfair but those assets are unclaimed if they claim them they need to prove ownership and that will get them into a sea of trouble.<p>Where will this money go now, well most likely back to the fed or will be kept on the DOJ books, I really don&#x27;t understand why people have trouble with this policy or why they hail the halt to it as some great achievement to civil rights.
