As an American it's a bit surprising to me that Sweden actually follows the quaint notion of justice and rule of law. Sounds like they even require property taken to be specifically listed and related to a crime as proven in a court of law. In the US authorities would've likely been able to keep all the BTC, and also could've seized the drug dealers home and car if they had any. In Florida (and many other states) it was/is common practice that any excuse police made could be used to seize almost any of a person's property, essentially on the spot. Generally without even needing to arrest the person or charge them with a crime or get a warrant. Just based on "suspicion" on the cops behalf. Thank good Ole "rule of law" President Reagan and the war on drugs for that one.
