Re: slander
To answer your question you can always sue a person or agency. The real question becomes how much money will you receive? In California if you are suing the police or any other governmental agency you must first file a claim within six months of the incident. Failure to file a claim will bar your claim. At the very least you should file a complaint with the police department to at least create a "jacket" for the offending police officers.
Good luck
