Easily upset. Too easy really.
You love criminals. I get it.

Back in 2007 or 08 I read an article claiming 75% of tested cash money has traces of drug residue. Perhaps the K9 was right.

Disagree with the law all you want. This appears to be an acceptable application in my opinion. Cry your eyes out for all I care. Money obtained through illegal means is not stolen when it is confiscated. This is a horrible example to try to make a case against it.

STUPID DOG!!
Cocaine is one of the most prevalent substances on money. $800,000 worth of 100's should have plenty of Cocaine on it. Also, large amounts of drugs were probably transported for a good amount of time in the vehicle previously.
Civil forfeiture and criminal charges are completely different and separate apparatuses. The police don't have to reveal the specific evidence they have to prove the standard (clear and convincing evidence) to the media or you. That's for the defense to dig up during discovery. Make them work for it. With most money seizures, several reports are run such as FinCEN and wage reports. More information may have come from the debriefs than was written as well. Kudos to TPSO for taking the dealer's money. Even if they have to give it back, it's a great intel pull and inconveniences the dealer/transporter/cartel.

You're just completely assuming though. I'm not saying it wasn't for drugs, you are just immediately discrediting the other guy. That's all I'm saying.

My man. I hate criminals too.

I'm using what information I have to make an educated guess. I'd bet none of y'all honestly think these people weren't dealing. Yall are just arguing to ague.

Civil forfeiture is what keeps the war on drugs going

You're an idiot. His "Passport 8500" didn't go off because the cop was using his radar correctly. The only way those radar detectors work is if a cop leaves his antenna transmitting all the time. If they turn it on and off like they should between cars, the radar detector won't pick up the signal until it's too late. When I found this out, I pretty much gave up on using mine.

You're comprehension skills are seriously lacking dude. I gave you a person example of why I'm saying to not judge a book by its cover. You are just hellbent on him being a criminal if you want my honest opinion.

You're lacking just as much. Your example is pretty much nothing like this instance.

I love these threads. I love anything that pisses off you miserable fricks.

And...?
People are against the "war on drugs" due to the enforcement of Marijuana laws. I agree the potheads are basically harmless and Marijuana should be legal but the "war on drugs" suppresses the overt use of the hard drugs. And before you laugh, live next to a meth or mojo freak if you think drugs only harm the person taking them. The fear of getting pinched keeps the thievery, overt drug use and the effects of that use, widespread drug rip offs in public places, etc. Yes, there are perks to civil forfeiture but most of the enforcement on the drugs themselves and not the money or assets so I disagree with your statement.

Large sum of cash.

Reasonableness is a standard in our courts. Just based off what was reported in the case you can project a few things.
We are no longer a cash society and it has been well established that dealers transport large amounts of cash. It is reasonable to assume that most law abiding citizens would not be concealing cash (assuming the cash was in a hidden compartment) if the money was legal. While on the surface, having large amounts of money is not illegal. Concealing large sums in a vehicle is a component of money laundering. You add things like this with interviews, money traces, bank reports, and wage reports to build a case. The occupants' criminal history is another factor that comes into play. If the guy has never worked a legit job in his life, hasn't claim a dime of legit income to the IRS, is concealing/transporting a large sum, and/or has attempted to avoid a United States financial reporting form, it would be a pretty strong application for civil forfeiture and potentially a decent money laundering case.
