Question: Why did Suzanne Cullen lie to Michelle about her not being at Terry Maslin's house the day and night before he was killed when she did?
Answer: If it was ever found out that she was at Terry's house before he was killed, there's a possibility that a lot of people would have begun to suspect her of murdering Terry. By claiming that she wasn't, she was hoping that people wouldn't accuse her of the murder.
