Prosecutor: “The conviction got overturned on appeal. We’re going to need all our witnesses back for the new trial.”
FBI: “That might be a little complicated…”
They protect the witnesses so that they can testify in court. It would become pretty obvious pretty quickly if all of the witnesses were the opposite of protected.
The tweet is talking about those who get protection even after the trial is complete.
Guess I missed the part where he said that.
Sometimes you have to use context clues to extrapolate data. In this case he’s talking about the government killing a witness so we can assume the government wouldn’t do that before the witness has had a chance to testify as that would defeat the purpose of having the witness be protected. Now that they’ve completed their testimony and are being sent to the witness protection program they are of no use so the government kills them.
Can almost hear the FBI destroying his door because hes trying to trick people out of witness protection lmao
Actually I’m in witness protec-
