At least the judge was able to leave the rest of the evidence in.

It really makes me wonder how that defense attorney can sleep at night knowing what he's trying to accomplish?

Even thought recent Supreme Court decisions on knock & announce indicate a trend toward the court wanting to see minor police fuck-ups dealt with as police disciplinary matters and not instant "get out of jail free" cards; this is still a major fuck-up to not follow Miranda when the guy asked for a lawyer.
Not what you'd expect from trained detectives.
