What excuse was given for searching the trunk in the first place? Nervousness? Confusion about his travel plans?
Surely as a cop, he knew his "rights", so why did he let them search his vehicle?

He knew what cops do when the suspect refuses to allow the search. Ass whipping followed by a search.

Nervousness, indeed, carrying badges for both Memphis and Dallas at the same time, and he did in fact refuse a voluntary search. So they did call for their department's drug dog, which alerted on the trunk area of Terrence's Lexus, giving the Texas cops their probable cause.
More details in the Memphis newspaper account *here*.
