What?
> Bouldin made his decision while standing on the shoulder of I-80 as cars whizzed by. He decided he wasn’t worried about the felony charges – there was nothing illegal in his van. He wouldn’t sign.

What do you say they would presumably charge him with criminal attempt of Neb. 28-416? They charged him with a misdemeanor for possessing drug money. Then they dropped it.
Frankly I'm amazed they wasted their time charging with anything when they can simply steal his money regardless of any charges.
- tptacek 3y agoAs I understand it, they charged him with a misdemeanor because he signed a civil forfeiture of the money, and their leverage was their ability to charge him with felony criminal attempt.

He decided he wasn’t worried about the felony charges – there was nothing illegal in his van. He wouldn’t sign. That is from the post by me that you're currently responding to. Notice the last sentence.
