Re: Possible several Civil Right Violations-Miranda -Threat-Warrant issues
You need an attorney to start working on your case as soon as possible before evidence of police misconduct is lost.
From what you wrote, it sounds as if you were the victim of an illegal search and seizure.
With the right attorney it is possible to get all the charges dropped due to an illegal search.
If you would like to talk to me free of charge feel free to contact me.
