Obstruction of Justice in Salem?

If one of the leaders in the Salem colony, had seen the witch investigation getting ever closer to him, and (correctly) knowing he was not a witch, had made efforts to shut the investigation down, would this be obstruction of justice?

Instead of a witch, how about a mafia boss who gets all his acolytes to understand he wants them to say or do whatever it takes to protect him? And to that end, they one by one fall on their swords and the boss still stands up untouched. One or two realise the error of their ways and as soon as they do turn against the boss and tell the truth he turns on them.
