Kevin and AHM: Ain't no such thing as an anonymous witness in a criminal case. When you plop down on the witness stand in a criminal trial, competent criminal lawyers get out the rubber hose and go to town. The only exception is when you have a spineless, gutless political hack of a judge who is playing intellectual footsies with the prosecutors. What you are probably confusing is the use of confidential informants to get search warrants. They are usually working off charges themselves. Recent article in NYTimes dealt with the number of bad search results (no contraband, wrong house etc.) because of the use of bad snitches. Prosecutors hate using them as witnesses in a trial because a competent lawyer can keep them on cross-examination for at least three days going over their past. Scott Shaw
