If you are in Portland you may contact the Independent Police Review division of the city auditor's office at 503-823-0146. They investigate citizen complaints. Otherwise, check with your city government to see fi they have an independent police oversight authority. You may also consider contacting a civil rights attorney to explore whether you have any civil remedies for what may have happened to you. The Oregon State Bar has a free referral service at 503-684-3763. Wm.
