I do not believe the law states that money can be siezed permanently for not being declared, and siezed without due process. This man, as far as I am aware was not put before a Jury that determined his money was forfeit.

There is supposed to be a thing called due process in this country, which our govt and legal system is supposed to operate by.

Where is due process here?

If this man had been charged with a crime for violating a law, put before a Jury, been convicted, and sentanced to a penalty, this would be entirely different.

Instead this man lost a livelihood he had done honest work for, due to arbitrary govt interference and even was offered hush money. That last bit right there says it all.

Illegal or not, thats not a reason to keep ~$60 grand just because. To me, thats just being a bully. Thats like walking down the street and some one just kicks your ass and takes your life savings and tells you to keep walking. Wtf does it have to do with being illegal or not. Its just not right. It's straight up earned money that has been saved. When they realized that it was hard honest earned money, they should have just fined, cited, warned, jailed, whatever, and when he gets deported, give him back his money.

I guess I should have said I think he should beable to keep the cash. That point I will agree on. I am more pissed about the 2 years they are taking to kick his ass out.

He was already trying to leave, I think if they handed him his cash he would buy his own ticket and leave of his own accord.
