Answer to Question 1

The Supreme Court has defined the term witness as one who supplies testimonial evidence, meaning that they might be called at trial to give testimony about what they observed. The Fifth Amendment protection against compelled self-incrimination also extends to things that people say which are communicative in naturebut not necessarily testimonial. Testimony thus comes in two forms: (1) that which is given at trial under oath and (2) that which is communicative information given by a person who is not under oath.
