If the police are using untraceable cash, that should tip anyone off that what they are doing certainly isn't something good, even criminal.

Law enforcement always needs to be visible and held accountable to the public, never any 'exceptions'.

"...accountable to the public, never any 'exceptions'."

Right, no wonder people are losing faith in democracy. It's commonly cited that we citizens are losing or have lost faith in our institutions.

'Tis little wonder, isn't it?

Color me shocked that the same police who operated black sites are doing more shady shit.

Civil forfeiture has got to go, it encourages bad behavior to secure the cash in the first place, and then they go and use it for stuff like this.

It’s starting to sound a lot like the CIA selling drugs or weapons to terrorists, in order to fund their black ops.
