Maybe they could, but if they have to tamper with the phone too much, at some point does any data recovered become inadmissible or inactionable because of how it was retrieved?

I kind of wonder if it would be in Apples best interest to just give them a hack that "accidentally" erases the phone. Maybe the FBI will never ask again.
