The sworn affidavit provided by the LEO to the judge justifying the warrant is never unsealed prior to the conclusion of a case.

What do you mean by "conclusion of a case"? Obviously a case cannot go to trial with evidence still sealed, and in at least some states the affidavit cannot remain under seal past the defendant's arraignment. Plus, affidavits are not always sealed in the first place—and the warrant that's been published in this case makes no mention of the supporting affidavit being under seal.
