I don't know. Investigators who are willing to stoop to "He stole our tracker" are surely not above exaggerating the evidence they've found.

Why do we even bother with warrants if the police can get around them by tricking you into "stealing" something?

It's so we can have the appearance of rights. Same reason why China has kangaroo courts.

100% this. Original evidence found was probably planted.
