QUESTION:
Would you testify as a witness to a murder if it meant your life could be threatened?
A San Francisco jury convicted a 29-year-old one-time reality TV contestant of first-degree murder Tuesday for gunning down a man in 2007 at the Sunnydale housing projects.
The witness said about 25 people saw what happened, but she alone testified. She is now in a witness protection program.
Prosecutor Linda Allen said that "she was terrified to do what she did, but she did it anyway."

I wish I could be that strong to testify. But I think I would fold for sure. What's worse is not only is your life threatened, those close to you may be as well. I can't have that on my conscience.

I would out of moral obligation, but also because I have often fantasized about being in a witness protection program lol.
