How can I convey this, without dialogue?

For my story, a police detective decides to get rid of evidence, in a murder case, cause he knows that the evidence is tainted and will get the defendant off on a technicality, which he does not want.

So he gets rid of it. However, since he is committing a crime himself by doing that, he cannot tell anyone. I don't want to have him narrate it, cause it would be awkward if he just narrates that one part of the story. But the reader will not understand how it is tainted or how the law works behind it, unless I somehow convey the explanation to them.

Is their a method to do such a thing without the MC telling anyone? Thanks for the input. I really appreciate it.
 
Yeah, I'm doing research into this stuff for my current screenplay, and it wouldn't work this way. The prosecutor isn't forced to use all of the evidence, only that which supports their case.
