Civil asset forfeiture undermines civil liberties, violates due process rights, and is discriminatory. It provides law enforcement with the power to take property from someone who has not been convicted of a crime. Under civil asset forfeiture schemes law enforcement agencies are allowed to keep a cut of the assets they seize. As a consequence of racial profiling, nationally, minorities are hardest hit by these schemes.
