The exclusionary rule applies to the evidence allowable in a criminal case.
One exception is the "good faith exception" established by the US Supreme Court case, United States v. Leon. This exception provides that in some cases evidence discovered in an otherwise illegal search may be used at trial rather than excluded, provided the search had been made in good faith. This means that if the police honestly believed that the search was legal (even though on further review of the facts it was not), the evidence obtained will not be excluded.
This applies to officers' objective, good-faith reliance on a warrant, later found to be defective, issued by a detached and neutral magistrate.

grand juries are not held to the same standard in regards to the exclusionary rule as police are... the exclusionary rule deters unlawful police conduct allowing the exclusionary rule for grand juries "unduly" interferes with the duties of the grand jury that are in merits supposed to be quick and effective Holding: The Court holds that the exclusionary rule in search and seizure cases does not apply to grand jury proceedings because the principal objective of the rule is "to deter future unlawful police conduct," and "it is unrealistic to assume that application of the rule to grand jury proceedings would significantly further that goal." Dissent: exclusionary rule protects against "all potential victims of unlawful government conduct"
