    This aboriginal man claimed to have been there the night of the murder and testifies that Tshuanahusset was the one that murdered William Robinson. Yet, he did not firsthand see Tshuanahusset kill William Robinson, nor did he immediately report him for the murder either. It was fifteen months before Sue Tas went to the authorities with information on the murder, and this rose no suspicion for neither the authorities nor the judicial system. The fact that Sue Tas waited this long to inform the authorities rises suspicion that perhaps he was lying because there was belief that Sue Tas was Tshuanahusset killed. Although this suspicion was out in the open, the authorities and judicial system still solely relied on Sue Tas as the only witness and did not look further into these circumstances. This could have simply been that Sue Tas saw the opportunity to pin an open case murder on Tshuanahusset which would explain why he reported him much later from when the murder actually occurred. Also, Sue Tas was threatened by his own tribe and chief after he went to the authorities and reported Tshuanahusset. This information was set aside by all authorities because they simply did not want to complicate the investigation and close it as soon as possible. This information could have meant that Sue Tas did something that was unforgivable by his tribe and this would not be revealing information, but perhaps this could be that he lied about the information to falsely convict Tshuanahusset. Furthermore, the complication of Sue Tas as the only witness should have encouraged authorities and the judicial system to look further into the murder case of William Robinson and not solely rely on one witness, yet through they perfunctory behaviour they closed the case quickly and…
