“Law enforcement officials are lashing out at a state senator for a new legislative proposal that would restrict the way police agencies are allowed to seize cash and property. Sen. Kyle Loveless (R-Oklahoma City) introduced a bill this week that would prevent law enforcement agencies from confiscating property unless that person is convicted of a crime. Part of the Personal Asset Protection Act, SB 838, would place legally seized assets into the state’s general fund. Currently, most of the seized property and cash are returned to local law enforcement agencies.”
