AML Conversations: Asset Forfeiture - A Conversation with Stef Cassella

Stef Cassella joins John for the record-breaking third appearance. They discuss: How Stef has been assisting other countries in drafting forfeiture legislation (criminal and civil) and in training their prosecutors and judges, a recognition in countries that are used as money laundering centers that they need a means to deter foreign criminals from using their financial institutions for that purpose What the congressional proposal called the “FAIR Act” would do to the civil forfeiture infrastructure and Stef’s view on an upcoming Supreme Court case, Culley v. Marshall, where Plaintiffs ask the Court to recognize a right to an immediate post-seizure hearing whenever law enforcement seizes property for civil forfeiture.
