"Please cite where the FBI failed to follow the law in this case. The FBI is a law enforcement agency."
There's this:
A federal prosecutor told Amazon's Pat Stokes that DOJ "seized the money too early" and that being forced to "prove" its seizure with evidence would have a "negative impact."
- anonuser123456 4y agoThat doesn’t mean they failed to follow the law. They can lawfully seize assets and later decide they were wrong/premature.
- tyingq 4y agoThat statement is from a prosecutor, who would have been as generous to the DOJ/FBI as possible in their wording. That it still sounds bad is telling.
