What do you mean the “why” is missing? What business is it of yours? Its not a crime to have cash in your possession. The “why” is irrelevant.
Here’s where I am puzzled but from a different angle. I thought Henry Hyde had sponsored reform legislation a decade ago to provide for speedy replevin absent clear and convincing evidence, the highest possible requirement in a court of law. There were a few exceptions such as the person being wanted on a criminal list, or previously convicted of felonies.
I’d want to know, “why” this fellow did not avail himself of this.

That is what I am emphasizing.
It is what is left out of the story, is what changes the whole picture.
I am faulting the reporting.
Not the guy that had his $ stolen by the cop.
