Soccermom - Once you told the officer you were choosing to leave the residence to stay at your parents, you opened the door for him to reside in the house. Had you said you planned on spending the night and coming back the next day, the officer may have taken a different direction. But if your statement about living with your parents was open-ended, as in it could be indefinitely, there would be no reasonable reason to cause the house to be empty and each occupant to find alternate residence.
You may have to accept that you may have some responsibility in the words you may have used that allowed the officer to make such decision.
Yes, he assaulted you. No the house shouldn't be abandoned while the process works out. As for your clothes and other goods, you should have discussed this with the police. They can arrange for you to enter the house without fear of the restraining order. They also would likely attend to ensure nothing further happened. So, again, you will see that you do have some responsibility here. I know you were likely a wreck, but even then you need to educate yourself (sometimes then more then ever).
