By my understanding of the law. the "FBI" can not sell them until DPR is convicted, as if he is proved innocent, they may have to give them back (although i think this is VERY unlikely to happen).
no, legally they dont have to do a criminal forfeiture. they can file for forfeiture civilly without conviction. but that is unlikely to happen.
Dont you just love the law  Embarrassed
whatever happened to innocent UNTIL proven guilty...... Cry
hence the constant outcry from civil libertarians about asset forfeiture laws. they are unconstitutional and unethical.
