You may have a valid argument that you were subjected to an unconstitutional search and seizure. I'm going to guess that the officer will say that he had a reason to do what he did. Maybe it was a good reason, maybe it was not. You should seek out the services of an attorney to help you in your case. An attorney can assist you with the investigation, give you advice, and navigate through the legal proceedings.
