FBI agent and federal prosecutor take Ferrari for joyride and total it; insurance co. out of luck

FBI agent and federal prosecutor take Ferrari for joyride and total it; insurance co. out of luck: A man's $750,000 Ferrari was stolen. It was recovered, and while the government was holding it as evidence an FBI agent and a federal prosecutor took it for a joyride. They totaled it. The owner's insurance company sued. The judge threw out the case, citing "a law making the government immune to lawsuits when property is in custody of law enforcement."
Hopefully, the owner was a Wall Street banker.
