Oh, also if you're under investigation for anything, the cops can just confiscate your house, car, possessions, whatever. Even if you're found not guilty, you don't get anything they took back. Typically it will get sold at a discount, typically to a cop. You'll often see them on twitter taking pictures with their fancy new car that they dragged someone out of a month ago. It's called asset forfeiture, and iirc It's the second or third most prevalent from of theft in America, wage theft being the first.
