"The government office is legally bound to seize and through Due Process, sell goods that are either part of a crime or have a linkage to it. Where the proceeds go, is also set by statute."

So who wrote the statue?

Who here approved/voted for the those in enforcing the "statute" to get/reap the rewards from their interpretation of the statue?

Those that write/enforce the law are not immune from self serving "bias".

Its hard to make a believable case of "due process" here when the accused is deceased before trial.

My whole position on the matter would be mitigated if say for instance the auction proceeds were divided fairly with those proven to be previously harmed financially by the accused actions, or anything else that did not directly benefit the enforcers.
