    I saw Rebel Ridge on Netflix, could very well be that police departments generate revenue through Civil Forfeiture.

    (It’s a fictional thriller, not a documentary, but very much based on modern realities)

      Tickets. Police departments have quotas because that’s their main revenue source, civil forfeiture is just the icing on the cake.

      Molly’s Game also includes Civil Forfeiture. I wouldn’t call it a major part of the plot, but it’s definitely there and described as bullshit.
