Asset ForfeitureThe primary mission of the Department of Justice Asset Forfeiture
Program is to employ asset forfeiture powers in a manner that enhances
public safety and security. This is accomplished by removing the
proceeds of crime and other assets relied upon by criminals and their
associates to perpetuate their criminal activity against our society.
Asset forfeiture has the power to disrupt or dismantle criminal
organizations that would continue to function if we only convicted and
incarcerated specific individuals. |
