When can law enforcement collect evidence without a warrant?
An officer of the law can only search for evidence if they have reasonable cause in doing so. All persons do however have the right to see a warrant before allowing a search, which is their right. All officers are aware of this, however, and if asked will produce a warrant. Without this warrant the evidence may be inadmissible in the court of law.Law Enforcement does not have to show you the warrantprior to serving it, or arresting you. Simply the knowledge that the warrant exists is sufficient for them to conduct their activity.They must, however, leave a copy of a search warrant at the residence, if it was a search warrant for a home, and an inventory of things taken, if any.

In general, police can search your trunk without a warrant or probable cause if they have your consent or if they believe there is evidence of a crime in the trunk.
If the search warrant is wrong can the police still used the evidence they found against you?
No. If the search warrant is invalid and they illegally searched you or someone you know (like without reasonable cause, or without the warrant) then they can't use any evidence against you. To the best of my knowledge, anyways. I don't know how many ways a search warrant can be wrong though...if they were searching for like, pot, but found cocaine, they CAN use that though. Or a gun, or something like that. If they have the warrant, they can use it. If they searched without the warrant, its invalid and inadmissible 100%.

What is a illegal activity without a warrant?
An illegal activity without a warrant typically refers to actions taken by law enforcement that violate an individual's Fourth Amendment rights, such as conducting a search or seizure without probable cause or judicial approval. For example, entering a private residence to search for evidence of a crime without obtaining a search warrant would be considered illegal. Additionally, wiretapping or monitoring communications without a warrant also falls under this category. These actions can lead to evidence being deemed inadmissible in court.
