here's the problem with your theory: when people say that evidence is inadmissible based on a "technicality", what they generally mean is that the police violated a person's rights during a search or seizure. The fourth amendment of the constitution is not a technicality. There ARE police out there who stop and frisk people with the argument that a suspect was "lookin' at me funny". When police abuse their authority, any evidence they may happen to find is inadmissible because it was obtained illegally.
