U.N. drug bust fails to trigger asset forfeiture

http://www.guardian.co.uk

1/26/12 16k(35 LBS!) cocaine was found @ U.N. in NWC. The drugs were confiscated -- no arrests, no seizure. By contrast...

(from http://www.erowid.org/freedom/law/forfeiture/forfeiture_info1.shtml paraphrased)

Billy Munnerlyn (BM) was hired to fly Albert Wright (AW) from AK to CA. DEA agents found $2.7m in AW's luggage & both AW & BM were arrested. The charges against both were dropped. BM spent $85k+ in legal fees trying to get his plane back. An L.A. jury awarded him return of his plane, a U.S. Dist. Judge reversed the verdict. He eventually spent $7k to buy his plane back. DEA caused ~$100k damage but is not liable for damage.
