You are missing a lot of the things that can be done.
1: Malware can be installed on the camera. Not to infect the camera, but to infect the police station where the evidence is synced. This gives access to the evidence store.
2: These act as beacons for exact locations for police. This puts them in danger. Bad guys get a beacon when the camera is there and on, and can even live stream what the camera sees.
3: Fake evidence can be uploaded to a camera within range. An ANTIFA member could fake a police brutality case, and upload it to the camera, make a claim and point to the footage as evidence.
4: Video files can be edited, and still show a valid signature because the checks are conducted in the wrong places.
5: Every single time a crime is committed that the video is used for evidence for, the camera is simply NOT treated like you have stated. If it were, police would have to bag their camera after every single interaction. Every time the camera is on, evidence can be wiped, altered, or fake evidence implanted.
This isn't theoretical, but was all demonstrated. You can say 'meh' but you clearly haven't thought this through.
