I've just finished reading Dark Rivers of The Heart. In Australia we have similar asset-forfeiture laws which by coincidence at the same time I was reading this book have been ruled unconstitutional by our highest court for the very reason they put the onus on the owner to prove that the forfeited property wasn't used in criminal activity.
