My opinion whether is it 'legal' or not, is of no value to you. If you're facing criminal charges, the only opinion that matters is from an attorney you hire to defend you properly. He will have to use whatever facts, evidence and law is available. If there are evidence suppression motions appropriate, he can file them. Feel free to contact me if serious about getting counsel. If you can't afford private counsel, get the PD, promptly.
