Your House Is Their House (with Epilogue)
"Your House Is Their House" considers civil forfeiture in Philadelphia and the class action lawsuit that has been filed in an attempt to remedy its abuses. Civil forfeiture is the process by which the government is allowed to seize personal property--cash, cars, and houses--used in or connected with the commission of a crime even though its owners have not been charged with a crime or suspected of committing a crime, let alone convicted of a crime. The video features interviews with Christos Sourovelis, a named plaintiff in the class action, and his wife Markela, as well as two of their attorneys, Darpana Sheth and David Rudovsky. Also interviewed are local journalist Isaiah Thompson and Philadelphia District Attorney Seth Williams. This video was produced and directed by Monisha Bhayana, Courtney Brown, and Maria Cardi, all L'15, who originated the project.
