In subsequent attempts to bring the perpetrators to trial, Dangar used his influence to orchestrate several perversions of the course of justice, in attempts to influence the outcome of the trials. In this he was a ferocious opponent of John Henry Plunket, who was the Attorney-General of NSW at the time.
