Keep in mind the judiciary doesn’t directly control the police, including hiring/firing decisions; it can only really control what goes on inside of the courtroom. The exclusionary rule[1] is kind of weird, but nobody’s figured out a different, noticeably better way to protect against unlawful search and seizure that works in the States.
