>>HOWEVER: Suppose the guy was already convicted and then this was done to get information on his accomplices? It's not clear to me that there would be a problem. Actually, I didn't make clear what I had in mind. The evidence gathered from the crook in custody wouldn't be used in court. It would be used by the cops to locate the accomplices and know what they had been up to and what they had planned and ow they operated. That could often result in such evidence being gathered to put them behind bars. I'm sure the ACLU has already figured out why this is illegal, though.
