[QUOTE="Glocktogo, post: 2249805, member: 1132"] A timely article on the subject: [url]http://gma.yahoo.com/blogs/abc-blogs/judge-orders-1-million-returned-exotic-dancer-151044009.html[/url] The bolded part is where the trouble started. Never consent to a search, even (and particularly) if you have nothing to hide. Once the police could establish no drug connection, why didn't they voluntarily return the money? Why did it take a judge's orders to get it back? They paid $74,000 to "hold" that money without cause. Regardless of what the government thinks these days, it's still not a crime to posses large amounts of cash. I hope it didn't cost her much to fight for the return of her lawful property. :( [/QUOTE]
