80 percent of people that have their belonging confiscated are never charged with crime.what police do is they take something of someones wether it be money or personal belongings and they charge it with a crime instead of the person and since its not a person it has no rights and its a bitch to get your things back you have to prove that what you had wasn't guilty of nothing and you only have a limited time to do so.
it should be like a search warrant. if they are looking for bombs and that is their reason to look then thats all they get to look for a bomb and not 10 dollars worth of weed you were bringing back for a friend.but thats just my opinion
