The real solution to this is not to reform civil forfeiture law but to pass legislation that makes sure that seized property is held in escrow and destroyed if a court decides that it does not revert to the owner. If police/municipalities can't profit from forfeiture and have to pay real costs for exercising it, it will disappear.
