If a lawyer, policeman, etc. is gathering evidence they can download a file to verify that its contents are in fact illegal and not mislabeled or something legal.

They have to do this in order to prosecute someone because if they did not the person could say "But, that movie labeled "Dark Knight" you saw on my computer was really a home-made movie about my friend pretending he was a Dark Knight".

If the prosecution didn't download the movie they would lose the case due to lack of evidence.

Maybe its because they know Jim was a bit of a plank (pictured above) and that he would just put his foot in it more and lose yet more ground for the prosecutor
