Your first step if you are charged with a crime is to contact an attorney directly to set up a consultation. Regardless of whether you hire the attorney or not, you can have a privileged conversation about your case and decide how to proceed.
If you have not been charged with any crime, you may have a civil cause of action for tbe police misconduct as well.
You may have a claim for false imprisonment against the police officer and could sue to protect yourself against evidence they may have obtained in your home and potentially sue for monetary damages.
