If that's the case then Corpse Witch may get some witness relocation deal and possibly reappear again albeit in a different chassis.

So a delivery drone for amazon?
No wait - That would be an almost dream job for someone else but without the H.E. payload unless it was Burt's Butt Burner Baked Brown Beans
Is it cold in here?:
Witness protection ...
Imagine being caught between Mob bosses who don't want you to confess on the one hand, and Eminence Grise on the other hand.

Influence, "connections," same-same. If CW had any influence, or pull, or connections, Roko Racoon would have been steering clear of the place. Her implications that she had connections are no more reliable than her assurances to Bubbles that her memories were still there to be unlocked. She's a proven liar.
Tova:
Officer Basilisk may well have been the only clean cop who pressed on with investigations in spite of being instructed to drop them. Which would also explain why she never had backup.
Obviously CW's claim to have connections could have been BS. But it could also have simply been overstated (e.g. she just bribed a cop to go away once or twice, and she somewhat grandiosely refers to them as "connections').
Neko_Ali:
Connections and influence really aren't the same. Influence means she could force an issue if she needed to. She had dirt on a cop or is holding someone over them. Connections just means she knows one or more cops who is amenable to looking the other way. Though if she was bribing cops she would have some influence over them, because if she went down she could finger the dirty cop, so it's in their best interest to keep CW out of jail.
