Counsel to the member of the public, whether appearing as legal defendant or as plaintiff against the police, should be able to demand full access to camera footage as part of standard pre-trial discovery.
If police fail to produce the footage, judges should instruct jurors that the adverse inference may be drawn (in case they're insufficiently skeptical to do so themselves).
