Perhaps it is people like you who, arguably, break the law and then get upset when they are caught. If your story is true, and placing the plate on another vehicle is lawful in your state provided you can show proof that the other vehicle is junked or sold, then you have a right to be miffed, but, the fault lies largely with you.
Adjusterjack is NOT a cop.You Must be a cop to act that way.
I doubt anyone felt "better" for towing your car.Not caring if someone is innocent just get to the part where you can get them for something and make yourself feel better.
I doubt they are buddies, but, since the USSC has ruled that inventory searches are legal, it is NOT a violation of the 4th Amendment.I hope your cop buddy feels good about "stealing" my car although the car was legal and doing a thorough search in it against the 4th admendment. All but thats ok cuz we don't have rights anymore because of ignorance.

As stated, he is NOT a police officer. And no one took your "rights" away by impounding your vehicle pursuant to state law and searching it pursuant to established case law and USSC decisions.
Oh so wrong!If I actually wanted to take this to the supreme court they would have to drop all charges and pay millions in retribution. By the actual law I don't even need a license to travel on our public roads that believe it or not, still belong to the the public. Let alone need tags or even insurance since it is my constitutional right to travel unencumbered by you dickheads.
Now you are descending into madness. The courts have consistently ruled that driving is a privilege and NOT a right. You can travel all you want, you just don't have a right to do so in a motor vehicle. Read, learn, understand.

Yep. Sounds like the issue can be cleared up to prevent any further penalties. Yes, it is likely the impound will still stand and he may be out those fees, but, he can always see about speaking to someone at the agency and see if there is a way to mitigate those costs as well.
