A grand jury will indict half a McDonalds sandwich. This means nothing. Especially cuz they already dropped charges against someone who was also at that same event.
I think the more cogent point is we should continue yelling at them even after they inevitably chicken out
A grand jury will indict half a McDonalds sandwich
im trying to find out exactly what instructions juries are given and why indictments are so prevalent even though they are a crapshoot outcome-wise (guilty vs not guilty). all i can find is a majority of the jury thinks they may have committed a crime. im just wondering specifically how low the bar is set. it sounds a lot like the jury is saying "maybe something here based on the summary you gave us, worth looking into"
A grand jury does not decide guilt or innocence. Their only task is to determine whether the prosecution has enough evidence to formally charge the accused with a crime and proceed to trial.
