"O'Neill knew that for Democrats to take credit for an anti-drug program in November elections, the bill had to get out of both Houses of Congress by early October. That required action on the House floor by early September, which meant that committees had to finish their work before the August recess. Since the idea was born in early July, the law-writing committees had less than a month to develop the ideas, to write the bills to carry out those ideas, and to get comments from the relevant government agencies and the public at large."

"A drug offender while in jail awaiting trial may learn the names of other persons awaiting trial. He may learn all about substantial assistance. He may learn that he can easily make up a story that will get him out of prison fairly soon if his story provides "substantial assistance" in the prosecution of someone else as a "high level trafficker." The quantity of drugs in a drug case need not be shown by physical evidence. You don't need 500 kilograms of cocaine powder to establish 500 kilograms for sentencing purposes. The simple testimony of a witness, usually offering "substantial assistance," is enough to "prove" that a quantity of drugs was sold. A clever informant can prove that someone else is a "high level trafficker" without too much trouble."

"The property owner is required to bring a lawsuit to get their property back. He or she must post a cash bond in order to bring the suit. If the property owner has no cash or no more valuable assets, they are not able to get their property back. If the property owner cannot afford a lawyer to bring the lawsuit, they can't get their property back. The laws require the lawsuit be filed within 10 days of the seizure of the property."
