Witness protection program


I understand that the son was " singing to the Feds" and relocated but does that give him free reign to do what he was doing?

No. I think they wold stay in contact with him until after any testimony in any trials.

But at a certain point, they expect you to support yourself. But being criminals they back slide and use their new identities to commit new crimes. Steve Martin made a comedy about this called My Blue Heaven. He and his family are relocated to a San Diego suburb from New York city where he stands out like a sore thumb.

Eventually he discovers other relocated criminals in the area. They quickly begin commiting new crimes.

I don't know everything. Neither does anyone else
