Since state lines were crossed does that mean this is a Federal Prosecution? I keep hearing everyone talk about WP LE ... are feds involved? Sorry I read so many cases, I’ve forgotten if this has been stated.
And I didn’t know this ...
Immunity in Exchange for Testimony
This website states Feds do not offer “transactional immunity” - which (I think) would protect KK but still leave her open for prosecution.
“Use and derivative use immunity is more common (used by both state and federal prosecutors) and narrower than transactional immunity. It prevents the prosecution from using the witness’s statements (“use”) or any evidence derived from those statements (“derivative use”) against the witness in a criminal prosecution. In theory, use and derivative use immunity provides as much protection as the witness not testifying.”
Either way ... Would she even be arrested?
Would she have to go to trial OR just admit guilt and receive lesser or no sentence?
I’m still not sure I understand the difference
