Don't Worry; The DEA Will Put It To Public Use
A woman at an airport falls prey to larcenous predators: The DEA:
    A Quincy woman carrying $46,950 in cash through Logan International Airport claims she was on the way to see a Texas plastic surgeon when federal drug agents seized the money she planned to use for a procedure on her buttocks and breasts.

    "The agent looked at my buttocks and told me that I do not need an operation," Ileana Valdez, 26, told a federal court yesterday in an affidavit contending she got the cash from selling her Dorchester business and two homes.
As some of you know, if law enforcement thinks you have too much cash on you, they can just take it and hold onto it for you until such time as you successfully sue to get it back.

    DEA Special Agent Anthony Pettigrew said, "This is her version of events on that day. When there's a hearing, DEA will present its version of what happened on that day."
How nice; the DEA doesn't plan to present evidence of wrongdoing. The DEA will present its version of what happened.
