John Putnam is brought into the court in Arthur Miller's play "The Crucible" primarily because he challenges the credibility of the witch trials and questions the motivations behind the accusations. His wife, Rebecca Nurse, has been accused of witchcraft, and Putnam's outspoken criticism of the proceedings raises suspicions about his intentions. Additionally, he is seen as a threat to the authority of the court, as he is one of the few characters willing to confront the injustice of the situation.
