This was addressed by Advogadro previously and I also looked into it. The burden of proof to get phone records is apparently less than what is needed to get a search warrant (such as actually tapping a phone). I don't mean to speak for Advogadro, but I believe his point was there are records that can be obtained as part of an investigation that don't require probable cause. I would hope that all possible investigative options were exhausted. We may never know.

According to the Constitution, one must have a reason to search that is valid and not frivolous. In other words you must supply an abundance of information to get a search warrant. The laws that protect the innocent also protect the guilty. You can't just say that it was behind their home. Which person exactly???? I am NOT defending the craponuses. I am just pointing out that witchhunts aren't legal.
