 Off screen, Shaw warned him off. He talked his bosses into transferring

I think I must have slept through that bit too. I thought the friend
testified or am I misremembering it?

 
Shaw forced him to state what he observed, which Shaw then reported to
Price, but he never testified.

If Shaw had no problem subverting justice and putting his friend's needs above
the law, why didn't he just ignore his friend's name on the customer list from
the get-go and act like he didn't recognize him from the footage Yee dug up?
Would have saved a lot of time and all Shaw's friends and colleagues wouldn't
now know that he can't be trusted.

Instead, he makes a big deal out of bringing the Marine's identity forward so
that everyone knows about him, and *then* obstructs justice.
