To compel individuals to testify, authorities often use legal mechanisms such as subpoenas, which require a person to appear in court and provide evidence or testimony. In some cases, immunity deals may be offered, where a witness can avoid prosecution in exchange for their testimony. Additionally, people may be threatened with contempt of court charges or other legal penalties if they refuse to testify. These methods are employed to ensure cooperation and gather necessary information for legal proceedings.
