Troit's post put this in perspective for me. If 92 over is a felony, put his ass in jail. Assessing what comes out as a $45000 fine is excessive. It is exacerbated by them keeping his property rather than auctioning it off.

I don't think theft is right, but if you compare that the the potential damage, be it property or human life, the man easily gambled with millions of dollars or more. I know it's not a perfect explanation, but he did gamble with a lot more than $45,000 worth of Viper.
In a perfect world, he gets a Geo fro the rest of his life. What the city did wasn't illegal, though.
