Testify update

So I recently wrote about a new friend of mine that is being forced to testify against a criminal that is involved in a gang. Her Mother has also gotten involved and they spoke to the local Sheriff, prosecutor, and a couple others. The Sherrif said that he was going to review the 911 call to determine if there is anything that he can do. He then called them back with the response, "I am done here." Since she never formally stated during the call that she did not want her information released, there is nothing anybody can do for her. She has to testify and she is extremely nervous. If she doesn't testify then she will be charged with contempt of court and go to jail herself! So, the only thing that she can do is wear a wig and big sunglasses to try and hide her identity. Who else thinks this is ridiculous?
