That way it is officially documented that the officer had his body cam turned off. Then there can't be no gray area as to when & why the body cam was turned off.

Because it is illegal. But courts don't often actually enforce the few consequences for cops that they are supposed to, so is it really a law if it isn't enforced? Judges also have certain restrictions in what they are allowed to do, but if they ever violate those restrictions it never gets inforced either, because a council of judges has to enforce the consequences for those violations, and that almost never happens either. And it is much, much scarier when you have a corrupt judge who breaks the rules.
