[Spiderman 3] why didn’t the butler tell Harry that Spider-Man didn’t kill his father ?

In the first Spiderman movie Harry’s father dies when his glider stabs him through the chest and Harry thinks that Spider-Man killed his father.But the butler knew this the whole time and never told him.Why didn’t he tell him this from the beginning ? It would have saved so much trouble.

It would have also implicated his father in several murders and terrorist attacks as well as dying by his own stupidity.  No one outside the butler and spiderman knew that the green goblin and Norman were the same person. Outing him would have caused immense emotional pressure on harry who was already dealing with his father's death and taking over oscorp and also put the Harry and oscorp on the hook for criminal and civil prosecution.  The butler probably hoped Norman's secret would die with him but couldn't anticipate Harry following him down that path of self destruction.
