He should then have Earle arrested for abusing his office.

What about the jury? 12 Texans believe there is enough for charges.

Grand juries typically do what the prosecutor advises them to do. At least they do in New Jersey and I would imagine elsewhere as well.

The jury selection process is also interesting.

Earle had to jury-shop at least three if not four times in order to get a gj to indict. And I won't be so naieve as to think that some of these jurors aren't cronies of Earle's.

One group of 12 that thought there was enough had a foreman who is on record saying he didn't care what the evidence was. Another group of 12 said there wasn't anything there. Then Earle rushed to different judge, a democrat, to put together a new group in majority democratic town, and then in less than a day they indited Delay. This whole thing stinks to high heaven.
