In other words, the new DOJ policy leaves the Equitable Sharing Program mostly untouched. It explicitly exempts seizures arising from state or local investigations that are assisted by or coordinated with federal agencies, which include seizures by hundreds of federally subsidized multijurisdictional task forces. ‘‘As virtually every drug task force I know of has a federal liaison on call, this means business as usual [for] local law enforcement,” says Eapen Thampy, executive director of Americans for Forfeiture Reform. “The exception swallows the rule.”
