Legal Question in Criminal Law in Indiana

I recently lost a deposit from work... Well obviously both my workplace and I had to make a statement... My workplace is not pressing charges or anything like that... It is actually going to be deducted from my check which I have no problem with.. I lost it it was my responsibility... Yet when i went in for my statement they proceeded to tel me to just say that I did it in which I didn't so I'm not going to admit to doing something that I didn't do... They obviously think I stole it.. So they asked me if they could search my house.... These were city police and I live way past city limits with my gf... She has lived there almost 5 years I have only been there 2 months... The lease is in her name... They did not contact her nor did they contact the home owner... Needless to say she is extremely irate about the situation... They where taking pictures of random things in the house... I had a box that had not been thrown out from a tv that I had bought a few weeks ago they took pictures of everything.... My question is.... Is what they did n how they went about doing it even legal?
