Detroit Escorts: Developer wants family’s gift back from Detroit
November 18, 2009 at 7:49 am | In Detroit escorts | No CommentsBehind his locked doors, the heir to the family that gifted 138 acres scans the park that he says has been orphaned by the city. Fields of waist-high weeds surround rusted jungle gyms. Split garbage bags and spare tires litter the pot-holed road. Cheyne watches for illegal dumpers or prostitutes.
This isn’t what his family had in mind when they gave the land to the city in the 1930s, Cheyne says. He wants it back.
…
But Cheyne said the land is of no use to the majority of the neighborhood. He said, until this summer, an 18-foot fiberglass boat sat in a parking lot in the park for more than two years. And he and his staff have seen wild dogs and photographed prostitutes in action, including the pictures submitted as evidence in his lawsuit. He admits to staying in his car most days when he drives through.

Detroit Escorts: Relic of St. Mary Magdalen comes to town
November 18, 2009 at 7:49 am | In Detroit escorts | No CommentsSt. Mary Magdalen Church in Honesdale has honored its patron saint since formation in the 1830’s. Never before have they been able to say they were blessed with anything of her physical presence. On Monday, St. Mary’s had the honor of hosting a visit of a relic of St. Mary Magdalen, which church tradition teaches is one of her actual bones.
Fr. William Langan, who began his pastorate in Honesdale in July, explained later that the arrival of the relic was significant for the people not only because the church patronage. St. Mary Magdalen, who had been a prostitute, had found mercy from Jesus Christ, and became the first witness of Christ’s resurrection. Identifying with her, as sinners who have found grace, the relic is a link to the very substance of their faith not seen, yet believed.
Detroit Escorts: Wayne County’s asset forfeiture problem
November 18, 2009 at 7:49 am | In Detroit escorts | No CommentsThe Detroit News has the second installment up of their series on the abuse of asset forfeiture laws by law enforcement and it contains another alarming statement from a law enforcement official, this time Wayne County Prosecutor Kym Worthy. The article recounts this story of a woman who had her car seized on the false allegation that she was engaging in prostitution:
…
Even when someone has committed a crime and been convicted of it, such forfeitures can be unjust. Perhaps the most famous court decision on this issue was a 1996 case from Royal Oak, Michigan. A man named John Bennis was arrested for soliciting prostitution and his vehicle was seized. The man’s wife, Tina Bennis, had purchased the car with money she had saved from babysitting but both their names were on the title. She used the car to transport their five children to school every day and had no knowledge of her husband’s activities until he was arrested; in fact, she divorced him after the arrest. The case went all the way to the U.S. Supreme Court, which ruled against her and said she has no right to the vehicle even though she had done nothing wrong.
Detroit Escorts: Wayne Co. profits from police property seizures
November 18, 2009 at 7:49 am | In Detroit escorts | No CommentsVaughn, who has no criminal record, was required to pay for the return of her car, which was seized by police after they mistook Vaughn’s co-worker for a prostitute.

…
Vehicles seized under authority of Wayne County prosecutors for alleged civil drug infractions become county property if the owner does not pay the fine, plus towing and storage fees, within 20 days. Other alleged civil offenders, such as those accused of gambling or prostitution, have 30 days to pay before the county takes ownership.

The Wayne County Sheriff’s Morality Unit seized Liangos’ 1999 Ford Expedition for soliciting a prostitute, even though the unit’s undercover officer acknowledged in her written report that he hadn’t broken the law.
…
When the officer spotted Liangos’ SUV in the area an hour later, she entered his plate into the Law Enforcement Information Network computer and saw he had been ticketed in 2004 for soliciting a prostitute, a charge he later pleaded down to disorderly conduct. Officers pulled him over and seized his SUV.
Detroit Escorts: Police property seizures ensnare even the innocent
November 18, 2009 at 7:49 am | In Detroit escorts | No CommentsThe increased reliance on seized property to fund police operations amounts to a trade-off for law enforcement. The tough economy may be prompting law enforcement agencies to use an “entrepreneurial spirit,” but that makes for bad public relations, said Tom Hendrickson, director of the Michigan Association of Chiefs of Police.
Courts support seizures
The friction over seizures is a result of two competing legacies in U.S. law. While the Fourth Amendment, adopted in 1791, protects the right of citizens to be free from unreasonable searches and seizures, the Supreme Court ruled in 1827 that a Spanish-owned ship could be seized after it fired on a U.S. vessel. Whether or not the crew was convicted, the brig was the principal offender, it ruled.
And 169 years later, the nation’s high court reaffirmed the notion when it ruled that a Royal Oak woman couldn’t challenge the seizure of the family sedan after her husband was caught having sex with a prostitute inside, even though she didn’t know the car was being used for that purpose.
Detroit Escorts: Editorial: Lawmakers should curtail property seizures without convictions
November 18, 2009 at 7:49 am | In Detroit escorts | No CommentsForfeiture law allows officers to seize goods such as cars, computers, boats, even homes, if they are connected with the commission of a crime. If a person is convicted, the seizures are part of the sentence.
Much more offensive is the practice of seizing goods before someone is convicted of a crime — and retaining the goods or requiring citizens to pay fees to retrieve them — even if there is no conviction or if no charges are brought.
Currently, state and federal law allows this practice, and it has been upheld in both the state and U.S. Supreme Courts. In a 1996 case involving the seizure of a car by the Royal Oak police in a prostitution case, U.S. Supreme Court Justice Clarence Thomas observed that “improperly used, forfeiture could become more like a roulette wheel employed to raise revenue from innocent but hapless owners. …”
