re: #486 Sharmuta

It’s quite simple. If you allow people to be convicted by fraudulently or illegally obtained evidence, you open the flood gate for governmental abuse.

There are trade-offs. But please show me the incentive for police to break the law if they are held personally liable for doing so? If a cop is charged with Breaking & entering and assault for bringing in a suspect without a warrant, I don’t see why his buddies will repeat the abuse.

You haven’t addressed the point of enabling known law-breakers, however.
