From what I have heard, the wait does not work. I just doesn't happen.

That sounds like throwing good money after bad. The attorney fees could meet
or exceed the damage.

I think I understand what you mean when you say "mistaken". Nothing was
found. However, I guess the searches can be quite complete which causes the
major damage. In a way, I can understand. They have to search the most
imaginative places. Drug runners are desperate and creative people. It's
just a shame that honest people have to be detained and subject to these high
seas searches, which can cause so much damage and cost and trauma.
Regards,
Len
