Do you take the same position regarding evidence found in searches executed without a valid warrant, i. e. fruit of the poisonous tree?
In any case, a retraction would not necessarily erase that knowledge. It would, however, limit its usefulness for the authors of these papers, in terms of reputation and citation count. That should serve as an incentive to more thoroughly investigate the provenance of that brain with a gun shot wound you're dissecting.
