I assume you mean the police destroyed or list your sample.

No, they cannot. Your attorney should be looking into a motion to dismiss the charges based on a Trombetta violation.

They CAN do anything they like. The consequence is that you have a good defense argument. If serous about hiring counsel to help you in this, feel free to contact me.
