What is the name of your state (only U.S. law)? Maine
I was driving to a friends house to go to the bar and saw my brother in the town park with his friend so I stopped to see what he was up to and ask if he wanted to go to the bar with us. I pulled in next to him (I was in his truck and he was in a friends car) He got out and I asked him if he wanted to go to the bar, he said no, he was going to catch up with his friend. He got back into his friends car and an Unmarked SUV pulled in behind us with its lights flashing. A Border Patrol Agent got out and asked me what I was doing there, I told him I was just talking to my brother. He then asked me where the Pot was. Nobody was smoking, nor had anyone smoked that day (in my opinion he said to hell with the whole innocent until proven guilty thing and just decided to pin us as guilty and we must have just done a Pot deal) He then told me he was going to search the truck I was in (not belonging to me) and he was going to have his dog come and check it. His dog got a "hit" on the truck I was in so they took me out
patted me down and locked me in the back of a truck (at 10:30PM about) they were nice and left the windows down so I would freeze for the 3 hours they kept me there on a windy night.They then questioned my brother and his friend and put them in the back of another truck while they took 30 minutes to "get a hit" on his car too. This was a complete lie beacuse the owner of the car was against pot, and worked for a federal company where he is randomly piss tested for this reason he never smokes, or even allows it around him. After their fake "hit" they tore his car apart and found nothing...(big supprise...they found nothing beacuse there was nor had there ever been pot in that car.) There was ~3grams of pot in the truck I was in so I can understand them holding me to ask questions (not for 3 hours in the middle of a freezing winter night locked in a truck with the windows wide open tho).
They called the sherrif but none wanted to respond probably beacuse it was only ~3grams, a misdemeanor.
They then took us out of their trucks, and made us stand in the town park while one agent screamed at us and belittled us refering to us as "****ing morons, ****ing idiots, ****ing scum" then went on to tell my brothers friend that he keeps "pretty ****in ****ty company" and that he shouldnt hang out with shuch "****ty ****ing people" he should avoid "****ing terrible people like us" He then told me he was going to "****in hunt me down" and he "better not see me out in town or hell ****in pull me over every chance he gets"
Is it legal for them to swear and scream and belittle us?
Can they barricade me in and search me beacuse I went to the park to talk to my brother?
How long can they hold me withought any charges? How long can they hold you in a freezing cold truck withought any updates?
They "let us go" can they later change their mind and charge me for something they already took from me?
Was it legal to detain my brother and his friend for approx 3 hours after getting a fake "hit" on their car after 30 minutes of walking around it? Even after they found nothing (beacuse there was never anything in the car) they still kept my brother and his friend locked in for a while for doing absolutely nothing wrong.
I already have anxiety problems and now I am afraid to go out into my own town and to my work beacuse I will run into this lunatic Border Patrol who thinks im "****ing Scum" or beacuse hes going to be "hunting me down".
Is it legal for BP to lie to their backup? The lunatic BP told us we were ****ing morons for lighting up and passing **** around infront of a BP...(i was only in the park for a minute or less before getting "pulled over" leaving no time to light or pass anything around) He also said that we had "a couple ounces" which was total crap, I had ~3grams (1/16 of 2 ounces).
