It’s less about what then when.

There is nothing good about this law.

“There is nothing good about this law.”

Do you believe the defendant should NOT know who is the Accuser?

mewzilla :" There is nothing good about this law. "

Expect more instances of "Arkancide" in this State
and a reluctance of witnesses to provide information.
The number of convictions will go down
and the number of criminals jailed or sent to prison will be reduced
which is just what the Governor wants in order to cut correctional facilities costs.
It is "whack-a-doodle" logic, with the victims even more at risk, ..along with witnesses.

Apparently this dem sponsored law does not include impeachment targets.

"There is nothing good about this law."

Defendants have rights too. In defending himself at trial a defendant has the right to attempt to impeach the character of all the witnesses testifying against him - which requires that he knows who will be testifying against him before the trial begins so that he may investigate their character. There already are safeguards in place to protect witnesses when the court deems that to be necessary and this law doesn't appear to change that.
