His phone was seized... he couldn't have filmed even if he had wanted to. Besides, 16 hours, nothing I own would film for that long without changing something.

He didn't have to give up his phone. The searching parties need the resident's permission. They can threaten contempt of court, but they can't otherwise just barge in and take stuff.

Interrogations/Depositions of civil lawsuits are always recorded by a stenographer and become public record as far as I know.
