“Evidence of such attempts by another is not admissible, however, where there is no evidence to connect the accused therewith. In order to make admissible evidence of attempts by a third person to influence a witness not to testify or to testify falsely, it must be established that such attempts were done by authorization of the accused .... [T]he authorization by the accused may be proved by direct or circumstantial evidence and an inference may be sufficient to connect the accused.”
