A juvenile has been subpoenad to testify tomorrow in a murder case that will almost indefiately endanger her and her daughters' life as a result. When she refused investigaters told her shes risking the possibility of having her daughter taken away and losing custody, though her daughter has nothing to do with the case other than being related to the deceased.
Threats regarding her testimony have already been made advising her what to do 'or else'
She is not the only witness, several others will be testifying tomorrow also. Can anything be done to keep her off the stand or is she obligated even though it more than likely have life threatening consequences?
