The other night the cops knocked on the door and my boyfriend answered it. They pushed their way through. They ran through the house with flash lights yelling and waking everyone up. I was the last up.
They brought us into the living room and put us all in hand cuffs with out even telling us the charges. They the cops didn't have a warrant. They brought me into the other room by myself (I was the only girl) and two cops stood over me threatening me that if I didn't cooperate they were going to call CPS and That I was going to jail and if I didn't cooperate I was interfering in police investigation. They coerced me into signing a search consent. I didn't voluntarily do this. I did it out of fear.
Can this be used as a defense method in the case? (That the signing of the consent form was coercion and not voluntary?) Or am I ''screwed"?
