HOUSTON, Texas -- A Mississippi man is currently fighting to get back the $41,680 he says Harris County took from him without merit.
With Woods' permission, deputies searched his vehicle and found the money he is currently seeking back. Prosecutor Angela Beavers of the Harris County District Attorney's Office said the money was bundled in electrical tape, vacuum sealed, and contained transmission fluid - a substance used to deter police dogs from detecting drug residue on bills.
"We have proof that he told officers that a known drug dealer paid him to come to Houston to buy the dope," Beavers explained."That is drug money that the officer had every right to seize to prevent that drug deal from happening."
Hell yea they took 12k off me on some bs talking about the dogs hit for narcotics. Go to hell!! Everyone’s money is going to hit from narcotics. Tell the judge pull her money out, I bet it hits I told the DA!! FOH!! Straight ROBBERY!! Sorry MF’s!!
This is 100% unethical and should be illegal. Carrying a lot of cash is not a crime, even if he is carrying it bundled in transmission fluid.
Police are the biggest criminals in America. This is happening way too often.
When you explain civil asset forfeiture to the average citizen they think you are lying. Morally criminal behavior from the people we are supposed to trust.
