Intimidation of a witness, victim, or informant is a form of obstruction of justice, and it's a federal crime defined under 18 U.S.C. 1512. Simply put, suppose you interfere with witness testimony or their cooperation. In that case, you could face federal criminal charges.
18 U.S. Code § 1512 - Tampering with a Witness, Victim, or an Informant
It's a crime to intimidate a witness of victim by interfering with cooperation in a federal criminal case.
However, to be indicted for witness tampering, it must be proven that you deliberately attempted to alter or prevent their testimony. However, it's unnecessary to prove your actions were successful, only that the attempt was made.
