Trouble for the city of Bethlehem. Their most important witness refuses to testify, citing his right against self-incrimination.
The witness in question gave what might have been bad information to the cops that lead to the deadly raid. That's what happens when you do this:
Neison became a paid informant for Bethlehem police after Moravian College police discovered Neison sold marijuana on campus, court records say. Neison allegedly was a Moravian student. According to Moravian records, Neison didn't earn a degree from the college, a spokesman said Wednesday.
Hmm, pay druggies to be informants. Not a great idea, but hey, it's a war. Gotta pull out all the stops.
