Do I have to be a witness?

I don't want to be a witness to a homicide. I fear for my life. The killers have court tomorrow the 21st. My name will be brought up and blasted on their paperwork. I was tricked and lied to by the detectives. I was told that I didn't have to be a witness by one of them. I was told I wouldn't have my name used,, that instead he would put anonymous. He no longer works as a detective. I also withdrew my statement due to safety reasons and was told ok and he wouldn't use my name. And it was all a lie. I don't want to be a witness. If my name gets brought up I'm going to end up hurting myself before anyone else does.

Being illegal in the USA for 2 years but was paying taxes and had my SSN can that be a problem for approving my N400 application for my citizenship

I just finished my N 400 citizenship interview and the officer said the decision cannot be made yet.

Can that cause a problem for not receiving my citizenship documents?
