Can the jury decide what the evidence is in a case?
That depends on what "decide what the evidence is" means. The jury does not decide what evidence is admissible in the court; that is up to the judge, and is one of the judge's primary responsibilities. If the attorney for one side or the other thinks evidence should not be admitted, they can make a motion to suppress or exclude it on various grounds, or object during the trial. If the judge decides that the jury should not consider a certain piece of evidence that was introduced, he or she can instruct the jury to disregard it. The jury's only role is to decide whether the defendant is guilty or not (or to find for the plaintiff or the defendant in a civil case).
Does the Miranda warning impede crime prevention?
Just because a Miranda Warning was not properly given, does not automatically mean that the defendant will be acquitted. However, if the defendant's statement was the only significant piece of evidence, the individual may be found not guilty. So, if the officer does their job, no, it does not damage the justice system in any way.

How does exclusionary rule prevents officers from performing unlawful searches and seizures?
If an officer were to obtain evidence illegally, such as searching you without probable cause, the evidence they acquired would not be admissible in court. That's not to say the entire case would be thrown out, but that single piece of evidence would not be allowed in court. The exclusionary rule doesn't prevent unlawful searches and seizures, but it disincentivizes them by making evidence seized unlawfully inadmissible at trial. There's no reason to illegally obtain evidence if it can't be used to convict a defendant.
