Well other than the obvious "he didn't know he knew until they wrote it in this season" think about it this way. He used Hanna's shoplifting to get in with Ashley whom he's always had a thing for (from that flashback). His rejection by her could spur him to seek revenge against Hanna and the others. Also, he's always been a corrupt cop. He might not have been able to just out of nowhere accuse CeCe Drake of murder without exposing his dirty secrets of being paid off by Jessica...twice! Pinning it on the friends might have seem believable.
