The Institute for Justice sent letters Monday to several metro Atlanta police departments demanding they disclose how they use money and assets seized in drug investigations as required by state law.

The Institute said it sent letters to 10 Georgia police agencies, including Gwinnett County Police, Douglas County Police and the Lawrenceville Police departments.
