A criminal with a badge is still a criminal.
-
Another example of how unlawful our government is.
-
Outrageous!!!! Shut down this criminal organization immediately!
-
EVERY FBI agent here, needs to be charged with the crime of THEFT, and whoever gave them that order should also be charged with CONSPIRACY to commit THEFT!!!
-
The fact that the FBI did not keep each box’s contents separate and itemized tells that the FBI never had any intention of returning anyone’s property. So much of the property is now unaccounted for.
-
It’s astounding that items criminally disappeared in the process of inventorying them for alleged crimes.
-
See, grandma stuffing her mattress with cash wasn't so crazy after all.
-
The people need to rise up. We are NOT a free country.
-
These FBI agents need to spend a bunch of time in prison.
-
Law enforcement and justice agencies should never benefit directly from forfeiture.
-
I lost my Seca 650 turbo to the IRS. They seized it at the repair shop along with everyone else's bikes because the shop owed back taxes. I never saw my bike again.
-
The people who “green lighted” this need to loose their jobs and be banned from any government job ever!
-
"But the people who took their property weren't mobsters..." Oh yes, they are.
-
It says a lot about the FBI that they did an ROI analysis of seizure costs vs "profit". It was NEVER about dealing with crime.
-
Worse than mobsters when they have the courts protecting them
-
We need to end all forms of civil forfeit being allowed to fund the money at all that comes from anything at all, ever.
-
If the FBI violated the terms of the warrant why did the judge that signed the warrant not call the FBI back to the court that issued the warrant. The FBI is out of control.
-
Whoever is responsible at the FBI should be criminally charged and be held accountable.
-
The I.J. is conducting the most important Civil Liberties litigation in our era. Thank you for defending our democracy.
-
A spanking? Who specifically was punished @ the FBI? The agency receiving a tongue lashing is a worthless charade.
