That's pretty insane. An off campus residence and they saw a MAGA hat, then searched her private property without her permission.
I'm not sure there is a law against that, but the law of respecting someone's personal space in a community space certainly comes to mind.
I wish she would have had one and they "confiscated" it. Then we have a crime.

I didn't see anything in there about the police conducting the search.

I agree. But as dennishoddy said, they(roomies/neighbors) searched her property without her permission because they saw the MAGA hat(profiling)---that was the point I was trying to make(not very well though:o).

Ah. The charges you specified are specific to government agents (and at least the "illegal search" is grounds for exclusion of evidence in a criminal proceeding, not necessarily a lawsuit). The civil suit against a private actor would likely be in trespass (specifically, trespass to chattels, which is improperly exercising dominion over the personal property of another).
