Protective Custody
An arrangement whereby a person is safeguarded by law enforcement authorities in a location other than the person's home because his or her safety is seriously threatened.
When a witness to a crime is intimidated not to testify because the alleged perpetrator or her associates have threatened physical violence against the witness or the witness's family, law enforcement authorities have the ability to offer the witness protective custody. Protective custody may last only until the end of a trial or it may last for several years. State and federal governments operate witness protection programs that provide assistance to those who wish to cooperate but who are afraid of physical retaliation.
Until the 1960s law enforcement used protective custody infrequently. Federal prosecution of Organized Crime figures led to the offering of witness protection to key government informers. In 1964 Joseph Valachi became the first La Cosa Nostra member to publicly testify to the existence of the organized crime group, appearing before a congressional committee. Valachi, who was facing the death penalty, agreed to testify in return for personal protection. He was held in solitary confinement for protection and given $15 a month.
Since the 1970s the Federal Witness Security Program (18 U.S.C.A. § 3521 [1970]) has grown in size. The program is used to fight organized crime, Terrorism, gang-related crime, and narcotics trafficking. In 1995, 141 new participants were added to the program, increasing the number to 6,580 witnesses and 14,845 total participants since the program began. Also in 1995, 257 protected witnesses testified at trials against organized crime members, resulting in a substantial number of convictions.

He gave conflicting information in several interviews. I wonder if forensic proof came out, DJ's hand was forced when confronted and he finally came clean.
He would definitely need protection for that.

It would take hours just to feed, bathe and do homework.

Maybe the Feds want to make sure that he does not skip town? In case he needs to talk to the GJ. Just a thought.
I don't get it.
Why would anyone threaten DJ? We all heard the interviews he gave to the media. Later, he was at the funeral and walking around by himself or with attorneys. If he finally told the truth to investigators, who would know other than the investigators? Why would he be under Federal protection? The only thing I can think of is that he's not allowed to discuss this case to anyone else while talking with investigators?
I just thought of this one. What about the dishes.
Very interesting and informative article.
If the prosecution decides to go forward with the case, can't they offer some kind of plea for Dorian? Like for example, erase the Jefferson County warrant? I'm sure they will do something to make him talk.

Well they can't loot anymore because lots of the businesses have been destroyed. So yeah, why not?
'Cause nothing makes the Grand Jury move quicker than blocking traffic :facepalm:

oh lordy, paper plates. lol
I thought it was Jefferson City not County.
Makes me wonder if any of it is true. I sort of feel sorry for him because of his childhood, but he could at least try to get beyond that life.
Ahhhh, I see. Yes, this makes much more sense. Very poorly written sentence!!
