One of the primary functions of government is to protect property rights. But what happens when government itself is threatening your property?
Civil asset forfeiture laws, as currently written, actually allow government to take property from individuals who have never been charged with a crime and never will be.
Policymakers are considering reforms that would go a long way to secure property rights of innocent Ohioans, and The Buckeye Institute is leading that charge.
The Buckeye Institute is co-sponsoring a luncheon, and cordially invites you to come and learn more about the problems with current civil asset forfeiture laws and to hear some policy solutions. Daniel Dew, Buckeye's own lawyer and Criminal Justice Fellow, is moderating the panel discussion. Lunch will be provided by City Barbeque.
