Not sure if it's what you're remembering, but adverse inference can be drawn when a party fails to present evidence known to exist by the court.

That sounds familiar. “Show us x and if you can’t we will assume its incriminating towards you”?

In this case - show us the body cam footage, and if youve hidden it or otherwise impaired its capture, the adverse inference is taken
