From reading up on the laws and if what this article says is true, even if they unlocked his phone and found evidence of crimes on it, his case would be kicked to the curb as it was all an illegal search and correct procedures weren’t followed.

Border guards do not need a search warrant to search you and your property at a crossing or point of entry. The search was perfectly legal.
Replying to @CanIFishHere@lemmy.ca
They can’t search your property without a warrant, probable cause, or your permission.

- An immigration officer also cannot search you or your belongings without either “probable cause” or your consent. If an agent asks you if they can search your belongings, you have the right to say no.
American Civil Liberties UnionKnow Your Rights | 100 Mile Border Zone | ACLUThe Fourth Amendment of the U.S. Constitution protects people from random and arbitrary stops and searches. Although the federal government claims the power to conduct certain kinds of warrantless stops within 100 miles of the U.S. border, important Fourth Amendment protections still apply.Replying to @GoatSynagogue@lemmy.world
Of course they just deny you entry at that point…

They can’t deny a US citizen entry to the US.
I doubt it would be grounds for turning away a legal visitor, though you would have to have a way to challenge it.
Replying to @GoatSynagogue@lemmy.world
You are sorely misinformed on both counts…
Replying to @Crashumbc@lemmy.world
You think they can deny a US citizen entry into the US?
Replying to @GoatSynagogue@lemmy.world
I think what is legal and what this administration does (and gets away with) are two very different things.

So they’ve been denying citizens entry? Source?
