> If it was just in a wallet on his forfeited computer, what will happen? That could set an interesting precedent, in regards to unrelated bitcoin on seized electronics, if there isn't a precedent already. When police perform searches, they have a notorious history of taking cash and trying to associate it with a crime. Sometimes this may be valid, but there have been instances when they improperly seized money and kept it. I imagine they would try to do the same with bitcoin if they think they have a chance to seize it and defend their actions. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Civil_forfeiture_in_the_United_States https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Civil_forfeiture_in_the_United...
