RE: Alabama Lawmakers Move To Rein In Out Of Control Civil Asset Forfeiture Practice
It's sad that this occurs in such volume in this country.
A qualm I have to pick -- is that in other states, which are currently legalizing marijuana, people who have in the past had assets taken from them on marijuana-related charges do not receive their assets back. Nor do their friends in neighboring states get any penalty lift.
Not only that, but in those same states that have legalized marijuana, individuals remain incarcerated for marijuana-related charges, despite the new laws.
It's awful. Thank you for shedding some light on the subject :)
