Good morning. About a month ago, a man approached me while I was working overnight for a large retail store. He asked me what the company's sexual harassment policy was. Upon further conversation with this guy (because how often do you get asked that by a customer?), I found out he was the jilted lover of one of the store's managers. After making a scene about this woman, he was asked to leave by security. In the weeks that followed, he repeatedly called her at home and work, came to the store, called her bosses, and yesterday slashed the tires of her truck. She has since obtained a temporary restraining order against this guy but needs to have a hearing to get him put away on charges. She has asked me to testify since he had an extensive conversation with me.
My questions: 1)should I testify? If I do, I'm scared he could eventually get out of jail and come after me. He could also endanger my family. His thinking could be, "If it wasn't for her, Manager would have eventually come back to me."
But if I DON'T, and he eventually kills her, I will always wonder if my testimony could have made a difference.
2) Could the big boss of the store fire me if I testify on this manager's behalf?
By the way, this all takes place in Georgia.
Thanks.
