Additionally, in Butler and Robideau’s trial, the jury was able to see how the FBI evidence was fabricated but when it came to Peltier’s trial it was not seen and evidence was withheld as well as there being phony ballistics tests. Also, in Peltier’s trial, there is a masked man while in Butler and Robideau’s trial there is no masked man.
