If I were a defense lawyer, I'd consider this as a really good way to exclude every bit of police testimony from a case, as there is no penalty to them if they lie in court.

Where am I legally incorrect in this theory?

The law specifies involuntary testimony. As long as the officer in question gives his testimony volunarily, he's subject to the usual penalties for perjury.
