Can I get details of a criminal investigation that was conducted on my?
I was arrested on false rape and kidnapping charges. They took a handful
of my personal property from my home after 10 or so officers held me at
gunpoint in my home. They let me go and no charges were filed. Am I entitled to the information gathered in the investigation? I would like it to support my case in civil court.
