Wowww...... IMO The Only People Who Should Be Hung Are Pedophiles, Murderers & Rapists!! I wonder if the families of the drug dealer’s customers would agree with you. Czech My Profile “Great spirits have often encountered violent opposition from weak minds.” ~ Albert Einstein | | |

It’s our society which has digressed. Drugs don’t only affect the people who use them. Drugs affect, and infect, our entire world. We need to stop enabling people to destroy lives. They take products off the market because they can potentially hurt people, but we look the other way when people use addictive drugs. Alcohol is also a drug. I wonder if there’s any correlation between the following: Pedophiles and Drugs Murderers and Drugs Rapists and Drugs Get a rope. Hang ‘em. And hang ‘em high. (No pun intended.)

Lottery tickets are "bearer" instruments, when he was arrested it was found on "his" person, "bearer" owns the ticket. I can name many a scenario that merely because the ticket is in someones possession does NOT make it theirs. Think about it , in the mean time Savagegoose poses the proper question. The ticket may be held by the department that captured it, doesnt mean they get to claim it. THe Judge who does the case would decide on the liquidation of assets if found guilty. Even the red handed get a trial before other matters are resolved. ________________________________ Wanna Make God laugh? ..Tell him your plans. | | |

Even the red handed get a trial before other matters are resolved. If and when I buy a lottery ticket it's MINE, I paid for it and it's in my possession. If it wins and I don't sign it and lose it someone can pick it up "SIGN" it and go cash in, again a "BEARER" instrument. It's now up to me to PROVE that it was mine and that it was loss or stolen if that were the case. If I can't prove that then who ever FOUND the ticket is a happy Lottery winner, case closed. Let's take an example of that same lottery ticket in my pocket, and say I got caught for drunk driving, Hauled into jail and they took all of my possessions away before they locked me up. Would the state be entitled to the money, no, once I paid the fine and served my jail time I am entitled to get my possessions back including my Lottery ticket. | | |

Nice Try, but I don't think this one will fly. I am sure they had a seach warrant for the drugs & everything else that pertains to drugs. If he sold drugs from his car, they can take the car. If he sold drugs from his house, they can take the house. If they find a large stach of cash that cannot be explained, they can take the cash. They have to prove that he bought the ticket with drug money, and I don't think this one will hold up in court. Good Try Won't Fly. This is what I think. No, they don't have to prove he bought it with drug money. That's how it should work, but in asset forfeiture cases you're generally guilty until you can prove your innocence. The ticket and other valuable assets are likely to be treated the same way as cash. | | |

It looks like this man was not making enough money from his drug deals, so he decided to buy a lottery ticket to supplement his income. Unless I state otherwise, I am referring to numbers in straight order. I cannot predict lottery numbers, except that there will be no winning number tomorrow in Nevada. In a lot of states, lotteries benefit education. That makes the REAL winners the only people who can't play! | | |
