    Witness Protection Program
    Where is the complete info on the Witness Protection Program? I had it once and now all I get are goofy sappy articles of how good the program is, or what a tragic faliure it can be if someone dosen't want to be in it. Please help me! Concerned Mother :-) To tell you the truth I think the FEDS are listening and preventing me from my mission. Knowledge and information.

    First no web site will contain everything about the witness protection program. Exactly what it does and how it works is restricted. There are also a witness protection program ran by each state and even a few major cities have smaller programs. And there is the Federal Program for high level witnesses.

    In general there is no fake deaths, no mystery, since the person has to show up in court and testify against the other person or people, they just disappear. They are never allowed to contact anyone they have known, they are given new ID. Normally before they testify they are in a higher security level protection. *** although many are criminals who will serve time in various federal prisons under new names and will be relocated again once they get out of prison. It is rare that the witness is actually just a innocent bystander most often they were part of the criminal group and decide to give evidence for varoiius reasons.

    If they do contact someone, unless they want to leave the program they would be moved so they could not be found.

    A person should not be able to ever find them, and if a person is looking for someone in the program it will put both their lifes at risk.

    Hello b:

    What's your mission? Yeah, those dirty feds.

    If you were already IN that program, you probably know more about it than most.

    I understand if you line your baseball cap with aluminum foil the Feds can't get through.
