Subpoenaed As A Witness In Leon County, Florida

Card image cap

January this year in Leon County, Florida my neighbors home was broken into around 2:00 am. I happened to wake up and decided to check the cameras. I saw the suspects on my security cameras and called law enforcement. Later submitted video evidence to law enforcement.

Law enforcement caught one of the two burglars running out of the neighbors house.

Now I’ve been served to testify in court that yes I called and submitted the videos. I was served roughly 7 weeks ago. The state attorney called and changed the date. Now today I get served again with yet another date change.

The first change was due to the lead detective being out of the country during the first date.

These changes keep interfering with things I need to do. I asked the SA if I could just come down and sign a sworn affidavit stating what ever they need. She tells me it has to be in the court room and this is just the way it is.

Is there any verbiage I can use to force the SA’s hand to speak with the judge to hopefully allow an affidavit or something?

This is making me never want to look out for my neighbors in the future.
