Witness protection

posted by admin in , Uncategorized

Witness protection is protection of a threatened witness, before, during and after a trial, usually by police.

Witness protection is usually required in trials against organized crime, where law enforcement sees a risk for witnesses to be intimidated by colleagues of defendants. It is also used at war crime trials.
