[Tell It Right]

Are grand jury transcripts worth anything? If I understand it correctly, a prosecutor has to present just a minimal amount of evidence to get the grand jury to say, Yep, there's enough to hash this all out in court. It doesn't necessarily have to be substantial evidence.

Or as the saying goes, anyone get get a grand jury to indict a ham sandwich.

Worse than that - the prosecutor presents his or her narrative without any form of rebuttal by the defendant. That’s why the proceedings are secret - unsubstantiated allegations are allowed without rebuttal.
