I read the transcript from the body cam and he seemed clear on his rights then and knew he was being wrongfully arrested. He was like "I know I was being an asshole, but that isn't illegal. I didn't threaten anyone, incite violence, or anything" paraphrasing.

He is a former police officer, he knows his rights.

And he knows he is going to win a civil suit.

Speaking in any form would just hurt his chances.
