The prosecution wants to make sure the process by which the evidence was obtained is not truthfully presented, because, as often as not, that process will raise questions.

Alan M. Dershowitz quotes
All sides in a trial want to hide at least some of the truth.
Judges are the weakest link in our system of justice, and they are also the most protected.
The court of last resort is no longer the Supreme Court. It's "Nightline."
The defendant wants to hide the truth because he's generally guilty. The defense attorney's job is to make sure the jury does not arrive at that truth.
The judge also has a truth he wants to hide: He often hasn't been completely candid in describing the facts or the law.
The prosecution wants to make sure the process by which the evidence was obtained is not truthfully presented, because, as often as not, that process will raise questions.
