That's not a bug, it's a feature of our lawless courts.
With emphasis:
Accusation without a crime being committed, on the basis of what one MAY do.
Property seized without a crime having been committed.
No Miranda rights.
Must prove innocence, rather than the state proving guilt.
Proving innocence is very often trying to prove a negative, which is impossible.
YOU must provide for your defense - and if you cannot afford a lawyer, well, tough shit for you then.
This is a travesty.
