This seems to represent a significant escalation in the use of civil forfeiture. Reminder: it is not a crime to possess or mail cash. In the case of using civil forfeiture against a driver pulled over while driving down a highway, the police will concoct a "totality of circumstances" narrative to explain why they thought the money was the proceeds of illegal activity. In the case of a package of cash being intercepted at FedEx, what other "circumstances" are there for them to concoct?
