I don't think that's a big concern because law enforcement will have to refuse the information or the case will be thrown out. They can't just go up and present illegally obtained evidence. Even the crappiest public defenders should catch something like that.
Parallel construction might be a possibility (though still illegal), but it would be difficult in this situation when the criminal isn't a suspect already.
