I trust that many readers know about civil forfeiture, the practice of seizing property based on its alleged connection to a crime, without convicting the property owner of any crime, and sometimes without any accusation that the owner had any connection to the crime, even if a crime was actually committed by someone. Reason magazine has an article about a lawsuit alleging that prosecutors filed bogus charges against a man for challenging the seizure of his car. We need law enforcement to make crime reasonably dangerous for the criminals, but we should not be indifferent to abuses committed by police and prosecutors.
