Well, they have to justify it to use the evidence during a motion to suppress hearing. If the evidence is deemed improperly seized through an improper search, then they face a lawsuit. If the prosecutor determines or believes there’s probable cause to charge, then a prosecutor can charge. We have a process for that in the United States.
