State and federal seizure laws allow police confiscated items to be sold at an auction. Any item can be seized by law enforcement agencies if they were used in a crime, or were bought with money that was received as a result of a crime. The agencies can choose whether to keep the property and use it in their operations, or sell it at an auction and use the proceeds for department business.
