I'm just glad you're here to stick up for your friends without any corroboration or linking story. It's just a good thing to do.

  Being charitable, let’s assume his friends work as homicide or theft detectives. If so, they need a high standard for admissible evidence to build their case. If on the other hand his friends are street cops tasked with clearing a corner of drug dealers because some neighbor complained to their council person who complained to the police chief then those cops don’t necessarily care about extrajudicial activities. Having been harassed by street cops and interacted with homicide detectives, I can tell you they vary tremendously in professionalism.

    They definitely need a high standard for admissible evidence, that doesn't stop them from purchasing large amounts of data from all-too-willing communications companies and using parallel construction to build their case once they find out what happened via warantless spying.

    Cybercrime. Lots of scams and child abuse.

    They can also query these messages to see if there is something on the dealers they get paid from and then warn them if something comes up. It works both ways, no?
