Latest version.

When any person arrested shall be adjudged innocent of the offense charged by a court of competent jurisdiction, which shall adjudge that the property or money in the possession of the Police Department belongs to such person, the Chief of Police shall thereupon deliver such property or money to such person only, and not to an attorney or agent, and take a receipt signed by the person therefor. If the accused is held for trial or examination, such money or property shall remain in the custody of the Chief of Police until the discharge or conviction of the person accused, unless prior thereto the Chief of Police has delivered the money or property to a State or County officer, as provided by law.
