You don't leak it during the trial. You do it before any trial even happens, or before anyone even knows that you have the video. You just create your secret video, and then release it to the media.
Then they COULD come after you later, but they almost certainly won't succeed. Recording crimes or sexual harassment pretty much never gets you in trouble.
This whole court situation where sexual harassment never gets punished works both ways.
Yes, it is difficult for these people to get punished. But it is equally difficult to punish people who retaliate against harassers.
The courts aren't the point anyway. Sure you aren't going to win a court case. But uber would still fire the guy. At will employment.
It doesn't matter if the secret video is illegal evidence. Uber can still fire the guy anyway, because they can fire people for any or no reason at all. And other companies can also refuse to hire him.
Also, if the culprit is an uber exec, it is not like they could sue anyone. That would look extremely extremely bad if Uber started suing women who were harassed. There goes billions of dollars.
