Off the street, thrown in to a van with a hood over your face, they haul you to a secret location and try to fish for information. You are detained for hours before being released. You end up back on the street as if nothing happened. Try suing them. You can't if there is no RECORD of your kidnaping. These kidnapers will simply deny they ever picked you up in the first place. No evidence of abusing their authority and no evidence of abuse to you under your CIVIL RIGHTS.
