Thanks for your valuable suggestion, itroll. I just spoke to the prosecutor : it seems like the case is going to the trial. I believe it makes my case for the U - visa more strong.

If they are going to trail, they might ask you to testify. Take the form and ask them to certify it before you agree to testify.

You have to be very careful. Otherwise, you'll get a "Y" visa, visa to YAMALOK.

What is the maximum prison time these THUGS are getting?  Any idea?

So, what would happen if these THUGS don't get convicted in court?  IF likely, what is your plan?
You said "suspects". Plural form. So, more than one THUG.  You better get your A$$ out of that States.

Please calculate all the risks it comes with the "U" visa, before you sign any papers with DA's office.

a few years back a guy was killed when he was coming out of the store to go to court to testify.

Guys: we are talking about low profile thugs in their early 20s. Nothing as substantial as the "Joker" from Batman.These guys are in jail for almost a year now and if convicted they will be in for another 8 to 9 years (minus 1 year already served) under serious armed robbery felon charges.

Based on your information you can certainly pursue U visa which is intended with an option to protect the victim of violence regardless of their immigration status. Only important thing in u visa package is the law enforcement officer (it could be the police officer or the prosecutor)....Robbery is certainly a qualifying crime. Please read the following article it has some information on numbers and data...

Thanks Bandita,

One of the main concern is,The City prosecutor informed me that the trial date might be set at the end of May or early June. My F-1 visa expired last year & I am lawfully allowed to stay in US as long as I am going to school (i.e. I-20 takes priority over visa).
Now, I am graduating & possibly applying for OPT (if I want to stay in United States) & I can't leave the country while the case is on-going & set to trial. The only way I could present myself legally in the courthouse is when I am legally staying in US. I am not going back to school, certainly not applying for OPT, If they want me to stay & testify: something needs to be done.
