So that's a lot of times, especially nowadays, because you said there are murders and everything.
So unless there's funding specifically for enforcing counterfeits, you aren't gonna see that much police presence.
So now to go into the raids,
The way raids work, and a raid obviously is by force.
I talked about cease and desist letters, which is basically, you know, hey, why don't you give this stuff up?

You know, you can, you know, avoid potential lawsuit if you give it up.
And sometimes they do, sometimes they don't.
But to perform a civil seizure, which is the civil version of a criminal raid, would be, we would have to hire the U.S.
Marshals.
in order to do that.
So you would hire the marshals and also put up a rather sizable bond for the for the raid.
So and you have to have I mean, you could also hire the sheriff's department in many cases, but but in a lot of because it's overtime work for them.
Right.
But a lot of times it's the marshals just because there's federal jurisdiction if anything goes
to haywire.
Sometimes we've seen, you know, terrorism, you know, and stuff like that links in those things, which the Sheriff's Department, you know, helps out with too.
The actual raid itself is where it gets kind of like a little disappointing to the viewers here, because you think of a raid as a lot of action and, you know, hey, run, go, go, go, you know, and cops everywhere and all that.
Well, that's not actually how a raid should go if the enforcement team does their job properly.
You see Dog the Bounty Hunter and there's always action, right?
