Just searching for info. On Witness Protection. If someone knew they were entering the Witness Protection Program, would they be allowed to let their parents know that they were leaving for a long time, but would be OK, or something along those lines? Or, would it be more like one day they were there and the next day they were gone never to be heard from again?

I believe you could tell your parents you were going into the witness protection program.

One reason being as you would probably have to come back in 6 months or so to testify, and plus, you do not want a missing persons report to be filed as well.

But, I am no expert on this.

It's different in a lot of cases I think. Most of the time people do know you are in the program. But relocating and making a new life and leaving them behind is the worst part of it at all. You can return to them in some cases and go back to your original life.

Hello:

Sure, you can go back... But, if the reason you went in, is because somebody wants to do you dirty, what makes you (or the cops) think somebody'll forget?? I don't think people forget. Do you??

The truth is, the cops don't CARE if somebody didn't forget. Once you're out of the program, that means the government has used you all up, and doesn't NEED you any more, so they'll throw you to the wolves. Frankly, they'll be thrilled to hear that you met an unhappy end.

What?? You think cops are good guys?? That they want to PROTECT somebody because they're worried about HIM?? Bwa ha ha. They're worried about their CASE - NOTHING ELSE!! You're nothing but fodder - grist for their mill!

Each case is different. There are various degrees of protection. They can range from a simple relocation to an whole new identity including a new face. It depends on who you are being protected from.

I worked in witseg. Wish I could tell you about it but I can't. I will tell you one thing though, don't tell anyone unles it is approved by the agent in charge.

Be careful and be prayerful. I think everycase is different. It sup to you. However, I would not want my family coming to see me if I was you. The people could follow them and find you. Pray. God will lead you in the right direction.

hey the witness protection tem is not that good in the u.k check it out I have told a little story about me init that's y my name is iaminit I=am=in=it

I would advice you to delete your posts, your IP address can be traced by someone, If you are really in a program, you should not be telling anyone.


As Magprob, I had dealings with the program in the US, and normally it works fine until someone in it, give thierself away.
