Retired railroad worker Terry Rolin and his parents, scarred by their experiences during the Great Depression, used to squirrel earnings and pension withdrawals in the basement of their Pennsylvania home.
But his decision to hand the money to daughter Rebecca Brown for deposit in a bank account after he moved out of his family home into an apartment realized his worst fears. The government has confiscated the 79-year-old’s $82,373 life savings, and does not plan to give it back, according to a lawsuit.
Federal officials call it a necessary tool to combat crime. But to Rolin and his daughter, Rebecca Brown, it’s outright robbery.
As Brown traveled from Pittsburgh to her Massachusetts home last summer, carrying the money that her father had entrusted to her, she was stopped by agents from the U.S. Drug Enforcement Administration and the Transportation Security Administration. Even though she was carrying the money domestically, which is perfectly legal, they challenged her over the amount, then took it away.
To date, Rolin has yet to retrieve the money. On Wednesday they sued both agencies both on their behalf and seeking class action status for the legions of people in their position.
