You could file a civil action for violation of constitutional rights, but under Roberts, SCOTUS has basically been ripping out all of the mechanisms that would let you file such suits.
- giantg2 8mo ago"As an individual and not the government, you can't file a criminal action." You can file with the police, if they take it. You can also file as a private criminal complaint in many jurisdictions. However, it's up to the DA to approve it most of the time. There can be an appeal process where a judge would make a determination. But yes, if the whole system is corrupt, then there's not much to do.
