>>934047Yeah I don't know why people think I'm bull shitting about the DUI and civil forfeiture stuff. All these tards have to do is Google it. A lot of DUI, drug law, and civil forfeiture law is not even written as "proof beyond a reasonable doubt". It's written as something called "a preponderance of the evidence" which means they only have to prove it's 50% plus any percent over that equals guilt. Meaning an officers suspicion and word in court already equals the 50% of the guilt needed to be proven. All they have to do is provide any percent over that... even fractions of a percent and you are guilty and your civil forfeiture is justified. I used to live in Illinois and live out west now I recall that kid getting run over and killed by a boater in the chain of lakes/fox lake that was drunk and high on coke that spurred the new enforcement. It's hilarious they think it couldn't happen in texas.
>>934069Thank you for proving my point. I still don't understand why everyone is so butt mad at me. I'm just trying to save people their hobby equipment, truck, and money. This is why people get fucked over. They don't know the law.
>>934087Oh yeah. Welcome to the world of civil property rights and the lack of "beyond a reasonable doubt" to seize property. People don't know the law. You should all take this guy's story seriously or you can say goodbye to a truck and boat or kayak or gear.
>>934106Doesn't matter. If it's withing view it's theirs if they want it or believe it to be part of the violation in any way. Again, preponderance of the evidence. Read above. It's fucked up.
