Money stolen by police ordered returned to owner.
http://reason.com/blog/2013/07/24/judge-orders-police-to-return-1-million"Unlike many other forfeiture stories, this one has a relatively happy ending: Last week U.S. District Judge Bataillon ordered the Nebraska State Patrol to return Mishra's money, plus interest. "The government failed to show a substantial connection between drugs and the money," Bataillon wrote in his ruling. "The dog sniff is inconsequential…The court finds the Dheris' story is credible…Ms. Mishra did have control over the money and directed the Dheris to deliver the money to New Jersey for the purchase of the business."
