During a recent trial, Prosecutor Chris Conroy raised concerns about the safety of witnesses involved in the case. Conroy emphasized that there have been significant repercussions for witnesses, with some expressing fear for their safety. He highlighted the bravery of these witnesses who have come forward under subpoena, only to face threats from the defendant that could potentially endanger them and their families.
Conroy argued against modifying the gag order mid-trial, stating that doing so would send a dangerous message to future witnesses. He believes that any changes to the gag order could put not only the current witnesses at risk but also those who may be called upon to testify in future cases.
