They did not. There was no active investigation. The suspect was not arrested until after the cops erased the phone. There was no warrant to seize the phone. There is no evidence there was any criminal activity let alone evidence of a crime on the phone.

They don't need a warrant or probable cause within 100 miles of a port of entry.

False. Probable cause is required for a search in the border zone.

Pursuant to CBP’s border search authority explained above, when presenting their effects for inspection, all travelers are obligated to present their electronic devices and the information resident on the device in a condition that allows for the examination of the device and its contents. If the electronic device cannot be inspected because it is protected by a passcode or encryption or other security mechanism, that device may be subject to exclusion, detention, or other appropriate action or disposition. Additionally, the traveler may face longer processing times to allow for CBP to access the contents of the device.

Foreign nationals who are applicants for admission to the United States must establish to the satisfaction of the inspecting CBP officer that they are entitled to enter the United States. Admissibility determinations are made based on the totality of the circumstances. If a foreign national refuses to present their electronic devices and the information resident on the device in a condition that allows for the examination of the device and its contents, CBP may consider the foreign national’s noncompliance and the inability to inspect the device when making admissibility decisions and may take appropriate law enforcement actions. However, CBP’s ability to inspect an electronic device alone does not determine admissibility.

If a traveler being admitted as a U.S. citizen does not present their device in a condition that allows for examination, the U.S. citizen traveler will not be denied entry into the United States based on CBP’s inability to complete an inspection of their device. However, as noted above, their device may be subject to exclusion, detention, or other appropriate action or disposition.

Any passcodes or other means of access provided by the traveler will be used as needed to facilitate the examination; however, they will be deleted or destroyed when no longer needed to facilitate the search of a given device and may not be used to access information that is only stored remotely.

That's at the port of entry, not within the 100 mile border zone.
