What is the latest happening in D4vd case?

According to a TMZ report, Deputy District Attorney Beth Silverman, who is overlooking the case, reportedly exited the grand jury room and confronted attorney Evan Jenness in the hallway of the courthouse.

Jennese, who represents the witness, and Robert Morgenroth, D4vd's music manager, who had previously testified in connection to the death investigation. Moreover, Silverman informed Jenness that she would request a judge to issue a “body attachment”, which is a legal order to detain and force a witness to testify. The witness, whose identity remains undisclosed, had not shown up.

Silverman reportedly said she planned to have the woman taken into custody and brought before the grand jury. The woman appears to be represented by Jenness, the same lawyer who is advising Morgenroth. The music manager previously spent several days testifying in the closed-door proceedings.
