If you have ever met a lawyer who works with cops you will have met a very frustrated lawyer. Some cops understand and can apply the rules. Many others do not have a clue and couldn't apply them anyway.
I know one lawyer who was telling about their many years of working with cops and what was interesting was that they much preferred the local cops as they knew the routines way way better. But the grander more respected police force was borderline useless when it came to i dotting and t crossing. Plus this lawyer would do their damnedest to keep the latter off the stand unless there was no alternative at all.
So I suspect that with this technology that some may have bent the rules and will get away with it. But I suspect that others didn't even know which rules shouldn't be broken and are so guilty that they are more guilty than the people they were trying to catch. Hopefully through the abuses of these people that the whole program is shut down.
