I’m curious: if LE images your devices and then you revoke consent, and then they search anyway and find something incriminating, are they then able to get a warrant after the fact, or does the fruit of the poisoned tree mean they can no longer use data from that device as evidence?

Not a laywer, but after consent is withdrawn court should rule that everything after that point is inadmissable evidence.
