I'm new to the field of law, and I have some questions about how judges and lawyers are safeguarded in high-profile cases where emotions run high. This includes cases involving political candidates or charging dangerous individuals such as gang leaders and cartel members.
Are there security measures in place to ensure their safety during and after these cases? Thank you.Do these guys usually get secret service protection or something? It feels like it would be quite common for individuals with power to use the threat of violence to influence a judgment in their favor.
