Can she get a court order to reveal who anonymously reported her to ss

Hi I reported a woman to social services anonymously .She now says that she will find out who reported her anonymously by getting a court order. Is this possible? She’s obviously furious and knocking on doors, interrogating neighbours, she says she will kill the person who’s reported her, she’s been imprisoned for ABH, so she means it.
I reported that she was leaving meds on the floor around a toddler,
I was then asked a list of questions about whether he was being fed and stuff and I made it clear that the child was well fed and clothed, and fine in all other ways, than there being meds around. So, if anyone looks at my report they should be able to tell it was not malicious.
I thought the only way my anonymity could be withdrawn was if my report was seen as malicious. I thought they’d just advise her to keep her meds away from the child but they’ve stopped her even seeing her sons who she visits, (they are already in care.) I don’t get how her house having meds lying around affects her supervised visits to her kids in another home.i didn’t mean for this to happen.

The problem is that although there is all this reassurance here from posters, public bodies do commit serious errors, and I would never trust the "redacting"; something could slip through, or just be released by some clueless underling.

So although she cannot get your name through official channels as she may think, I believe there is a small risk that she may find out, which you have to accept, having made the decision to report- for which I think you deserve respect.

Good for you op.
And yes failure to have safety of child uppermost in any situation will affect all situations so it will be connected (maybe not the only connecter) to her supervised contacts elsewhere too.

Well done OP. I read your other thread. It takes courage to report someone like this. You absolutely did the right thing and I'm sorry you're now frightened because of that. Just keep calm and distance yourself from this woman as much as you can without arousing suspicion.

OP your last comment also makes you identifiable.

@Shedpaint

OP your last comment also makes you identifiable.
Why? Is it because I said she knocked on my door? (She’s been to every house in the street not just mine).
