This case is strange, the money is almost certainly from drug dealing.
IANAL, consider two other situations:
The other point I would make as the lawyer in this case is "How would taking this money; prevent future crime?"
The compromise the crown could make, is that the money is taxed as income. They get 33% + 15% of any money spent.
The moral of the story, is if you find a butt load of cash, don't tell anyone.
