That's the second point. The 4th Amendment does not prohibit unreasonable searches for the purpose of prosecution. It prohibits unreasonable searches. Period.
This whole argument that "as long as we don't prosecute, we can do whatever we want" is false and dangerous.
"The right of the people to be secure in their persons, houses, papers, and effects against unreasonable searches ... shall not be violated."
Where's the disclaimer that this applies only if we are charging you? It does not exist.
