But the law will force him to prove legal acquisition of everything.

If he has even a reasonably good attorney the opposite should be true. They would have to prove, beyond a reasonable doubt, that he acquired a piece illegally. They would have to do that, individually, for each peace they accuse him of acquiring illegally.

Now, if this was tax court, it would be a whole different thing. Sadly...

I read in the comments for this story elsewhere that antiquities law works like tax court; you must prove that each item was acquired legally with documentation. If so, that law should be changed, imho. Better, get a president who really cares about serious reduction in government so they don’t have the resources to do this crap.
