What does having a script to eject said footage out of the device help in this case?

  I think it's not really meant to be used and more along the line of disproving the fabricant-police claims of these devices being tamper-proof and therefore proper evidences.

  As 'aenario said: scripts like these dispel the following narratives: * That police cameras are tamper-proof. * That the police are capable of responsibly handling the data they record (cf. the recent Twitter thread about eBay-purchased cameras). * That cameras are an effective and fool-proof check on police malfeasance. But even beyond that: if I was a defense attorney whose client was the subject of police harassment, I wouldn't trust any footage turned over by the police. I'd want to have the original recording device itself imaged by my own consultant.
