As courtroom threats grow more frequent, one woman tells a federal judge that she's scared to testify in the murder of a federal drug witness.

The witness claims her car windows were smashed at work by two men sitting in the courtroom audience.

Witness intimidation is a growing problem affecting more than just federal courts.

Prosecutors say they need more money to house witnesses and provide protection.

While Congressman Elijah Cummings proposed an increase in federal funding, prosecutors say money alone isn't enough.

They say tougher witness intimidation laws are needed.
