United States (1984) 468 U.S. 796, 804 ["the exclusionary rule reaches not only primary evidence obtained as a direct result of an illegal search or seizure, [citation], but also evidence later discovered and found to be derivative of an illegality or 'fruit of the poisonous tree.' [Citation.] It 'extends as well to the indirect as the direct products' of unconstitutional conduct"].)
