Well, the good news is that at least the drugs are off the street... even if the search and seizure was tainted.
The bad news to go along with that good news is that the ones with the drugs were just taught that they can get out of punishment even when they are captured red handed.
That is the worst message that can be sent when it comes to the rule of law and it is one of the main reasons for the levels of crime we have in this nation today.(IMHO)
