Canadian Citizen Gets Phone Back from Police
After 175 million failed password guesses, a judge rules that the Canadian police must return a suspect’s phone.
[Judge] Carter said the investigation can continue without the phones, and he noted that Ottawa police have made a formal request to obtain more data from Google.
“This strikes me as a potentially more fruitful avenue of investigation than using brute force to enter the phones,” he said.

I think it would be unwise to ever unlock those phones if he does get them back.
