Indiana police have dogs that sniff specifically for cash at the US’s 2nd biggest FedEx hub, then they simply keep the money

This isn’t crime fighting. It’s an actual crime — a blatant, naked theft carried out by officers, Libertarian Party Chair Evan McMahon writes.

(edit) Would someone please ship some counterfeit money through there and get it confiscated, so the police can then be investigated for spending counterfeit money?
Fuck Indiana. Biggest gang there is is the ISP.

Ahh, the land of the free! And the innocent until proven guilty!

They will just arrest whoever sent it for distributing it.
Why would you not just use USPS wtf
That's your takeaway from this story?!
What a mess (︶︹︺)
So, don't ship boxes of money. Bank transfers or checks. If you're getting garnished, I'm sorry to say, but pay your debts. (garnished =/= police confiscation)
I don't agree with this civil forfeiture either, but what are you actually able to do about it? Legal fees will outpace recovering the money no matter what, especially since they'll have you prove a negative by claiming it is drug money or something. Don't mail boxes of cash.

Well yeah that's part of why cops are far worse than burglars.
It is not illegal to send money by mail and there are legitimate reasons to do so. This is a blatant money grab by a corrupt government.
This is not garnish because it went to the police department. Garnished wage goes to the debt payment
Correct. I am referring to the "what about" objection of not using banks because of debt collection
What debts are you talking about? Do you think that these people owed money?
Disclaimer: I don't agree with this person.
But they're aluding to the fact that one of the main reasons people don't use banks is because they owe someone money and their bank accounts are able to be garnished. The only sure fire way to keep your money from being garnished is to keep it as physical cash.
