Civil Asset Forfeiture (CAF) is a law enforcement tool adapted in the 1980s for use in the American War on Drugs. In essence, CAF allows law enforcement agents at all levels of government to seize property they suspect was used in or resulted from a crime without proof or due process of law. Victims of CAF must prove the innocence of their property at their own expense, flipping the American legal principle of innocent until proven guilty on its head.
