The previous president appointed Loretta Lynch as AG, who made a name for herself with civil asset forfeiture.

If he didn't want this sort of nonsense to be a front and center policy of the DOJ, then he would have appointed someone else.

What about Jeff Sessions? Policy wise, he's also a supporter of this policy, although he doesn't have the proven track record of using it as a tool like Lynch did. Maybe there's a small ray of hope there, but I doubt it.
