" Both Justice and Treasury operate separate asset forfeiture programs that are designed to prevent and reduce crime through the seizure and forfeiture of assets that represent the proceeds of, or were used to facilitate, federal crimes. Annually, participating agencies within Justice and Treasury seize millions of dollars in assets as a result of their law enforcement activities. In fiscal year 2011, the combined value of assets in these two programs was about $9.4 billion. Beginning in 1988 and through 2003, Congress and GAO have called on Justice and Treasury to consolidate management activities between their programs. GAO was asked to assess the extent to which Justice and Treasury have assessed and acted on opportunities to coordinate or consolidate forfeiture property management activities since 2003 to reduce any duplication and achieve cost savings. GAO interviewed officials to determine actions under way or completed to consolidate their management activities. GAO also analyzed IT asset tracking systems functions and the geographic proximity of contracted facilities that store vehicles, vessels, and aircraft. "

Both the Department of Justice and the Department of Treasury operate separate asset forfeiture programs that are designed to prevent and reduce crime through the seizure and forfeiture of assets that represent the proceeds of, or were used to, facilitate, federal crimes. Annually, participating agencies within the Departments of Justice and Treasury seize millions of dollars in assets as a result of their law enforcement activities. In fiscal year 2011, the combined value of assets in these two programs was about $9.4 billion. Beginning in 1988 and through 2003, Congress and the Government Accountability Office (GAO) have called on the Departments of Justice and Treasury to consolidate management activities between their programs. This book assesses the extent to which these departments have assessed and acted on opportunities to co-ordinate or consolidate forfeiture property management activities since 2003 to reduce any duplication and achieve cost savings.

GAO reviewed the U.S. Customs Service's and Department of Justice's (DOJ) management of property seized through their asset forfeiture programs. GAO found that: (1) the government has lost significant revenues because seized property has not been properly cared for; (2) despite legislation that requires Justice and the Department of the Treasury to develop a plan to consolidate their postseizure administration, they continue to operate two similar but separate seized asset management and disposal programs; (3) questions remain as to whether forfeiture laws and the proceeds from these asset forfeiture programs are being applied appropriately; (4) although some management and systems changes have improved program operations, serious internal control weaknesses affect Customs' ability to control, manage, and report the results of its seizure efforts; (5) the Customs Commissioner has established a senior management task force to review the entire seized property program; (6) problems persist with the Marshals Service's disposal of seized and forfeited property; (7) DOJ and Treasury have made significant progress in consolidating postseizure management of noncash seized property, strengthening the asset forfeiture program's integrity, and ensuring that asset forfeiture laws are applied appropriately; (8) although there have been significant improvements in seized and forfeited assets management, some significant problems remain and the Marshals Service and Customs need to continue their oversight of their asset forfeiture programs.
