The rules of evidence used by courts are not necessarily intended to establish the truth. There are sometimes other motives which might well be in clear opposition to that. For example, the exclusion of evidence from illegal searches is intended to discourage illegal searches. It is not intended to establish the truth, and in fact the rule obviously impedes the discovery of truth.
