To protect yourself, you should remain quiet and take precautions to ensure that you are not identified as a witness. First, avoid talking about the murder with anyone—remain silent and act like nothing happened. Second, try to stay out of sight in your home for a while after the crime took place; even if someone is looking for witnesses, they likely won't look in your house if you remain hidden. Thirdly, make sure to disable or limit any security cameras that may have been activated by the event—this can help keep your identity safe from becoming public knowledge. Finally, consider speaking with a counselor or an attorney to find the best course of action—protecting yourself is more important than avoiding involvement.

In order to avoid being identified as a witness, some effective strategies include: staying silent and avoiding drawing attention to yourself, listening to the situation with headphones or covering your ears so you don't hear the sound of the crime and looking in the opposite direction so you don't see what's happening. Additionally, it is important not to touch your phone or any other device that can be used to record audio or video during the incident. If you feel safe enough, you can leave the scene as quickly and calmly as possible and seek help from a trusted adult.
