Wouldn’t we have heard about this more from evidence presented in courts though? Like surely this is quantifiable if they’re actionably using ill-gotten evidence to prosecute.


Not if they are using parallel construction:

This looks like a job for Parallel Construction!

Why would they even risk showing ill-gotten evidence? It would be way easier to just keep that evidence secret and have a cop stand in the right spot to arrest the mark as they go about their usual routine. They probably "look suspicious".


Not if it were part of the secret court proceedings happening under the same pretenses.
