interesting article re: carrying large amounts of cash on airplanes.
I can't help but think you'll have less problems if you are not hispanic. Maybe I'm just cynical. |

If the money is truly legitimate, there should be plenty of documentation of where it came from. If she can provide this, I assume the money will be returned. Carrying large amounts of cash in and of itself is not illegal.

[/ QUOTE ] no one said she was guilty of anything, that's how they get away with it. If they were to arrest her the burden of proof is with law enforcement. these seizure laws are obscene. |

If the feds are suspecting laundered money I'm not sure how proving the money is legit proves anything. think about it: you buy some convenience store, sell it for $50k, withdraw to cash, now for the next six months you're all set to make drug/cash runs with documentation of where this $50k came from. notice this happened in february, and we're just seeing a lawsuit being filed four months later. I'm sure she's been trying to get it back. (just to be clear I definitely view this as a violation of civil liberties, but that's beside the point) |
