Civil asset forfeiture is an essential element to the Lancaster County Drug Task Force’s efforts to deter drug dealing operations by depriving criminals of the proceeds of illegal activity and taking away their means of operation.  District Attorney Heather Adams has vowed to administer the use of forfeiture funds professionally, lawfully, and in a manner consistent with sound public policy.  Transparency regarding the use of these funds allows for accountability which should apply to all levels of government, including law enforcement.

Attached below are records, not previously released, of all receipts and expenses for each account related to the Drug Task Force between July 2020 through June 2021.  The records will be released on a yearly basis and were prepared with the assistance of the Lancaster County Controller’s Office.
