Legal Question in Criminal Law in Texas

My vehicle was parked at my mother-in-laws apartment complex and I had forgotten to place my visitor pass in the front window of my vehicle. I engaged my parking brake after I parked my vehicle. My vehicle was towed off the property. When I retrieved my vehicle from the vehicle storage facility my parking brake had been disengaged. My question is... Are tow companies in Texas allowed to enter a persons vehicle to disengage the parking brake for a un-consented tow, while the vehicle is on private pdoperty?

Yes. Otherwise they would have damaged your vehicle and you would be complaining about that.
