Civil forfeiture is abused more often on the side of the road.Take, for example, interdiction teams. A large chunk of many agencies budgets rely on the fruits (either primary or secondary) of civil forfeiture. Its well documented in Tennessee that 10x more interdiction stops are performed on the money side of I40 than on the drug side. There's even ample documentation of many traffic stops be performed under false pretenses.All one has to do to be a victim of civil forfeiture is be accused of a crime. No criminal charges even need to be filed. And its up to the victim to prove their innocence to regain their property.</blockquote>
