Road Pirates….

Further proof that only criminals and woke Democrats wear masks. Not to be redundant.

28+ years in law enforcement myself and I can tell you from my experience that law enforcement are truly a den of thieves...... like the movie

Awesome!!!

Civil Assets Forfeiture aka Theft. This is one of the reasons why law enforcement is one of the most hated professions. Silly Humans.

Cops and criminals are two sides of the same coin and often times they are one and the same

Thank you mister LARA, I Bow to you

Wow, corrupt cops? What's next, corrupt politicians?

Civil forfeiture? You mean civil theft.

Good, these road pirates need to get back to actually doing their jobs, You know investigating, gathering evidence, and building a case then using that evidence to get a warrant to take the money they did the actual work to find out if it was used for drugs or not and stop wasting americas time and resources... The officers who partook in this piracy are a disgrace to America and need to find other lines of work. I hear McDonald's and Wendy's are hiring... But they need good competent people...

He didn't trust the bank, but he withdrew the money from the bank, and was headed to where?

The correct term for CAF is armed robbery.

Most law enforcement or nothing more but Mafia gangs

👏👏👏

Police stole from a U.S Marine veteran. Wow. Disgraceful

At least it’s a start, I hope they extend it to all law enforcement agencies. Crooks

Conservative republican welfare states will simply change their laws to allow police to prey on the innocent just like they did in texas and florida to legalize harming Americans. Thank god for liberals like the institute for justice fighting for real American justice.

No money should be seized unless drugs over a certain amount. It’s our right to carry money

Should have never been allowed About time this STOPS

Now I understand G@z@. Also, Karma is a bitch.

Shocking cops lost a case on this. Govt typically bends over backwards to allow forfeiture and legislators on both sides of the aisle openly support it

Just when you thought the thugs with badhes were scumbags you find out its worse than you realized. They are not only violating civil rights and abusing citizens but are also theives.

👍👏👏👏👏👏👏👏

No more RICO violations under the color of law! Sorry piggies, you'll have to pay for those motorbikes and jet skis with money you actually earned. They need to go after double dipping overtime, timetheft, and 'parallel' public/private shift pay next. They have had their cake and ate it too, for far too long.

State Trooper leadership should be removed. They knew what they were doing was wrong: circumventing rights to enhance their budgets.

Any cop who takes ANYTHING under the guise of civil asset forefeiture is nothing more than a thief.

I was wondering what happened to this guy’s money. I’m glad he got his money back. But he should’ve gotten market prime interest for four years.

Literally robbing people at gunpoint.

Civil Forfeiture is ILLEGAL! Signed, The Constitution of the United States of America

how much did the police steal before this ?

Never trust the police. Ever.

So, you have law enforcement trying to evade the law in order to enrich themselves. 🤬 Gotta love unintended irony. When are the Back-The-Blue voters going to figure out what crooks most cops are?

When u allow police to basically keep what they confiscate there is bound to b major corruption

No proceeds from any cash or property seized should ever be given back to the department that seized it. Any proceeds should go directly to a fund that pays down the national debt. If you return the money to the department that seized it, you will encourage more and more seizures.

I don't trust any police as far as I can throw a piano.

I don't trust any police as far as I can throw a piano.

We use news like this to teach our children not to trust the police.

At least one state stood up to money laundering by feds and police

I see 1700% CORRUPTION with The Government ! Yes, DEFUND THE Government ! Yes, DEFUND THE POLICE ! Yes, DEFUND THE Sheriff's department / ect !

Does anyone think the NSP will stop stealing citizens' money?

State legislators voted to make civil forfeiture illegal a few years back, but PDs in that state continue to do it. I don't understand why cops can't just follow the law?!?!!?

The cops shouldn't act like gangs robbing people. How is this different from stealing? Bunch of crooks! This should apply to all road Pirates. They all use the same loophole.
