$1 million + from citizens with barely any due process if any at all.
Straight up thieves. Lock 'em up I say.
Civil asset forfeiture is so completely fucked.

One Way To Deal With Cops Who Lie? Blacklist Them, Some DAs Say
There's a similar law in Utah. Brady/Giglio (refers to the two cases that created the case law) requires that when an officer who has lied in an investigation goes to court to testify, everyone involved in the case is required to be told about the fact that the officer was caught lying. Pretty much removes all credibility from the officer's testimony, as it should. Lying is a fireable offense in many departments.

Big win for citizens as civil forfeiture gets slapped down a notch in a unanimous ruling.

Now the courts just need to reinstate the 4th amendment.
Ok, this is just insane.

Police Launch Probe After Black Man Detained For Picking Up Trash At His Home
Boulder police on Monday launched an internal investigation after video surfaced of multiple officers confronting a black man who was picking up trash at his own house.
According to a news release, a Boulder police officer observed a man sitting in a partially enclosed patio area behind a “private property” sign in the 2300 block of Arapahoe Avenue at 8:30 a.m. Friday and asked if the man was allowed to be there.
The man told the officer he lived and worked in the building, and gave the officer his school identification card, but the officer detained the man to investigate further.
The officer then made a request over the radio for additional assistance to respond, saying the man was uncooperative and unwilling to put down a blunt object. Several other officers, including a supervisor, responded.
Police found the object the man was holding is a device used to pick up trash, and officers left the area.

Yep, what else do you expect from LEO's in Missouri? I'd tell them to GTFO of my hospital room and consult with the physicians first to see if there is even probable cause.
Trust me, hospital security is second best to a mall security officer. Not terribly bright.
So they smelled cannabis, big deal. They probably had no idea what they were even looking for. Patient probably had a pen and these dipshits were probably looking for a baggie.
How officers find them some dates......

I assume their claim about a search warrant was bullshit? What started all that? Ya, fuck those guys
In this case I would guess the cops were not happy with what they had to do--blame whatever assholes called the cops. Guy should sue the hospital.
re hospital security--at my hospital one of the security guards was a 60 something, about 5'6", no mace, club, gun or anything else to protect himself. The highlight of his career--two FBI agents were investigating something, locked their keys in their car, the security guard slim jimmed the lock for them
And why did they handcuff the guy? Did they have an arrest warrant for him? You don't need to handcuff the occupants to execute a search warrant, which they probably didn't have.

Sounds like the whole town--cops, mayor, town council--is dirty. Bunch of meth heads--haven't they heard that opiates are the thing now.
Given they repeatedly claimed that they had a warrant but didn't produce it, the whole thing reeks of bullshit. A charge doesn't wave warrant requirements. If one of them was on probation that would be different but that's not what those aholes were claiming.
