More details to this question:
on burglary of a habitat charge. It was a silly situation that has been blowing it way out of proportion. She has since filed with my attorney an affidavit of non prosecution but the state says they are going to continue prosecution. What would happen if she did not show up to trial as a witness? Would they be able to prosecute the case just off of her sworn statements and text messages?

You have a right to confront witnesses and if the State wishes her testimony they can subpoena her, even jailing her to force her testimony. Talk to your attorney about the details
