Removing the
requirement that seized currency exceed $100,000 before it can be transferred
by state prosecutors to a federal agency and replacing it with a requirement
that seized currency can be transferred to a federal agency in conjunction
with a federal criminal case could result in increased revenues to state,
county and municipal law enforcement agencies by providinge a mechanism for
assets to be forfeited in a federal criminal case and distributed back to
these entities. |
