I suspect this guy may not be available to testify because he’ll have an unfortunate accident. Choking on a bar of soap, beaten to death in solitary, something.
In the movies, something like you suggest might happen. The video speaks for itself, and, if he were to die before any legal proceeding, the facts will not be in dispute as to who took the video. It will be admissible in a criminal or civil proceeding.

He does not need to testfy. The video tells the story better than an eye witness account.
