We sometime forget that the police and DA have obligations other than to cater to Internet speculation. All individuals charged will have an opportunity to challenge any video or other evidence presented. Satisfying conspiracy theories is not their objective nor, in most cases, even possible.

So if the prosecutors choose not to present the video footage, the defendants (or the families of the shot bikers) cannot have access?

The argument to not releasing the video (at this time) is that it would taint the juror pool, not that it would give the defense team(s) unfair advantage.
