That's the way the Grand Jury works!
I am finding out a lot of stuff abuot NC Courts that is less than impressive.
I did not know that there are no pre-trial hearings and that there is no right to a speedy trial in North Carolina.
Howlin, I didn't know there were states, or at least one state, that has no speedy trial statute and no pre-trial probable cause proceeding in which the prosecution's prima facie case can be cross-examined, among other rather shocking shortcomings. It took me a full week to grasp that there will be no probable cause examination, for starters. I'm still having trouble acknowledging that.
