It would be as easy as saying "I have a job" or "my grandmother gave me $2,000 for rent and necessaries". It could be done by a self represented person easily.

And again, the person who has property seized from them always has drugs... police are not just randomly taking money. Drug legalization is another another matter (I am pro, FWIW), but for now it remains illegal.

Moreover, police officers do lie on signed police reports (it's happened to me). Were you present during Bob's arrest? > I have a job So, if I have a job paying $20k/year and I have $2k in my pocket would that be a sufficient reason for having said currency? > My grandmother gave me $2,000 for rent and necessaries Would my grandmother have to appear before a judge as well? What if the court date was scheduled 3 weeks after my arrest? I'd probably be evicted out of my home by the time I ever saw a judge.
