Bossier/Webster District Attorney Schuyler Marvin's office has just been given a check for more than $119,000. That's half the amount of cash seized during a routine traffic stop by State Police in February of last year.

The three men who were in the car they stopped were found to be part of a scheme where they cashed fraudulent tax refund checks. They were on their way from Houston back to Pennsylvania with a load of hidden cash when they were stopped.

The criminal charges in the case were prosecuted in state court and the forfeiture case was successfully pursued in federal court.

Jason Parker.
