I am a 31 year old female I have a clean background until now. I bought a new mini van and on February 27,2009 I went out to my van to put the new parking permit into the van. When I tried to open the door to the van it was frozen so I went to my car to get the deicer once I found it I opened the van sat in the middle seat about to put the sticker in the window and a male detective came up to me and asked what am I doing I told him. He then asked me if I had a drivers license then he asked me to step out of the vehicle. Then he took me over to my friends van. And then he began to search my van in which he found weed in the back of the van under the seat. He came up to me and put me in hand cuffs called for a female officer to come and search me and my friend. and placed me under arrest is that a legal search and what do I have to do to get my van back and also the police officer that is testifying against me was not present but is lying on her testimony stating that she was there the whole time.

You should get a lawyer. If you didn't give permission to search the van, hopefully you can get the case thrown out. I think your constitutional rights were violated.
