When I served on the county grand jury we NEVER in the 8 weeks I served failed to indict someone. Never. Now I laugh when on Law & Order they speculate "I wonder if we have enough for the grand jury". In my experience it was the ultimate rubber stamp, so I have to wonder if this is the same deal.

It IS a rubber stamp. Prosecutors generally issue their own indictments but in high profile cases they resort to a grand jury to preserve the fiction the accusation is handed down by a panel of disinterested citizen peers. Baloney! GJ always follow the lead of the D.A and if he wants someone indicted, he will get it.
