You can't help your tree anymore. Your juniper is dead.

Thank you so much for your honest reply. I don’t understand how I went wrong, I went to a bonsai class at the same location where I bought it and I did as I was told, the only thing that left me uneasy was that they pressured cleaned it they sold me a new pot to re potted it. But I was told that my tree would be fine.

Do you mean they pressure cleaned the roots?

The tree trunks, I felt uneasy but they said it wasn’t bad. They repotted the tree themselves too.

Cleaning the trunk probably wasn't the issue. The soil doesn't look right and pretty wet though.
Hard to tell though what the cause was.

And: for how long have you had it?
From the look of it, that’s been dead for several weeks...
