Police Getting Sued to Return Marijuana Seizures
Brietbart: “In states with legalized recreational marijuana and legalized medical marijuana use, police are finding themselves sued by citizens who have wrongly had their pot seized as evidence. Only a few years ago, police could confiscate ‘illegal pot plants by ripping them out by their roots and stashing them away in musty evidence rooms to die are now thinking twice about the practice.’ A new trend is growing where people are suing not only for return of the stash, but sometimes monetary restitution.”
