Victory: Trucker gets back money seized at Phoenix airport

This weekend, IJ client Jerry Johnson finally got back the nearly $40,000 that police seized from him at a Phoenix airport—after a two-and-a-half-year legal battle. 

With your help, IJ will keep fighting until we end the abusive practice of civil forfeiture entirely.
