Witness Tampering

Witness tampering is a form of prosecutor misconduct where the prosecutor intentionally tries to interfere with the testimony of a witness in a court proceeding. This could involve pressuring, intimidating, or threatening a witness to change their testimony, or offering them incentives or rewards for providing false or misleading testimony. This type of misconduct undermines the integrity of the justice system and can result in wrongful convictions or acquittals.
