Disclosure of PSI information enables the defendant to contest information that he or she considers unfair and to be protected from the effects of unfounded information, but disclosure may cause all of the following EXCEPT:

A. family members may fear retribution from the defendant.

B. law enforcement agencies will save time if confidential information is provided to the defendant or the defendant's attorney.

C. sources of information will hesitate to provide information.

D. sources of information may dry up.

is it D

Think about it. If the prosecutor could keep his case a secret, the defendant would have no time to prepare a defense. It would save time.

In my book i did find A,B,C the only one i can't find is D

yes, I think D is the correct answer. I'm not even sure what it means to "dry up." If sources have already been deposed, what, the paper work will blow away?

Yes, the correct answer is D. Disclosure of PSI information may cause sources of information to hesitate or be reluctant to provide information in the future, but it does not necessarily mean that the sources will completely dry up. The other options highlight potential negative outcomes of disclosure: family members fearing retribution, law enforcement agencies saving time, and sources of information hesitating to provide information.
