Woman Says DEA Agent Wrongly Confiscated Her Dad’s Life Savings at Airport

A Pennsylvania man’s entire life savings was lost when the DEA confiscated it at an airport, the man’s daughter said. Rebecca Brown was visiting her dad in Pittsburgh last year when he asked her to deposit $82,000 in cash – his life savings – in a joint bank account when she went home to Massachusetts. Brown brought the money to the airport, where a DEA agent seized the money, she said. Brown and her father have since filed a lawsuit.
