If the house were bought from drug money, why would its now-foreclosed status make a difference?How a Philadelphia Family Lost Their Home to Asset Forfeiture
How a Philadelphia Family Lost Their Home to Asset Forfeiture | The Institute for Justice
From the article:
“But on her own now, and unable to pay rent on top of the mortgage on the house she was barred from entering, she began missing mortgage payments. When the DA did eventually withdraw its forfeiture case against the Leinos’ house, it was only because the bank had already foreclosed.”
Oh, that's right. :doh The bank has the resources and connections to fight it.
