Police raided Miguel Zeldon's home in Philadelphia looking for drugs. No drugs were found, but police confiscated thousands of dollars in cash.

In the summer of 2012, Miguel Zeledon had arrived home from work with hoagies for dinner. He was swarmed by Philadelphia police, who said they had a search warrant for his home.
"I've never been arrested, never even had a traffic ticket," Zeledon said. "It was baffling what was happening."
Zeledon, then 32, worked in risk management for an e-commerce company. He said the officers repeatedly asked his then-partner to tell them who his drug supplier was. Zeledon had grown up in the neighborhood, known for drug activity, but never said more than a neighborly greeting to those involved.
The officers didn't find drugs, Zeledon said. But they did find $7,000 in cash in his nightstand and $3,400 in his partner's drawer.
When Zeledon's partner didn't name his supposed drug supplier, the two officers split her cash and gave her a receipt for just the $7,000. They taunted her for being with Zeledon, using an ethnic slur, and sat down to eat the hoagies.
Zeledon said she didn’t file a complaint with the police. "It was the police who took it, so who could we go to at that point?" he asked.

NICE VIDEO !!! Very engaging from the beginning to the END.Nevertheless business and investment are the best way to make money irrespective of which party make it to the Oval Office.
I just sent him a message and he responded . Thanks a lot!
He has been able to secure a steady inflow off my bitcoins, it’s just great especially with this whole pandemic Situation it’s just amazing to find Mr Bryan Lawson and there has been no regrets every since .
With the Validation of BITCOIN in El Salvador as a legal tender and also recognition by the Australian Taxation office as an asset for capital and gain tax , some other countries may adopt similar usage in otherwise investing is a necessity for me😎
I’m very glad I stumbled on this today, writing To him now ,really hope he helps me ! My investment portfolio is a mess😥.

This is what people are talking about when they say defund the police. Nobody wants to get rid of good cops doing good work.
Banks are not the best place to save $. I sav $ in my home bcuz one bank 🏦🏦 said I would we’d them $100 for a fee on having a checking/savings acct. I’m in collections now and of course, I took my $ out of there. Since then I don’t trust banks since then. I just done understand why cops think that you are not selling drugs just saving your hard earned $ by working your azz off. I work holidays, OT, 2nd/3rd shifts, whenever I can. I don’t live in luxury but live humbly. No need vehicle or larger house 🏠🏡, I just save $ for a rainy day or when I fe l like I deserve to treat myself 🤭
End civil asset forfeiture!
So they robbed him
Just cops doing what cops do.
