A grand jury is a legal body composed of citizens who are convened to determine whether there is enough evidence to bring criminal charges against an individual or group of individuals. Here's a summary of what a grand jury is and what it does:
According to a new filing, Bryan Kohberger's team alleges that 24 violations took place during the grand jury process and due to those violations, the whole thing should be tossed. The state of Idaho has not yet responded.

- Purpose:
- The primary purpose of a grand jury is to serve as a check on government power by ensuring that individuals are not unfairly or arbitrarily charged with crimes. It acts as a safeguard to protect citizens from baseless accusations.
- Composition:
- Grand juries typically consist of 16 to 23 members who are randomly selected from the community.
- Grand jurors are chosen to serve for a specific term, often several months, during which they hear multiple cases.
- Secret Proceedings:
- Grand jury proceedings are conducted in secret, and the identities of the jurors are kept confidential to encourage impartiality and protect them from potential intimidation.
- Investigation:
- Grand juries have the authority to investigate a wide range of criminal matters, including felonies and serious crimes.
- They can issue subpoenas to compel witnesses to testify and produce documents or other evidence relevant to their investigations.
- Evidence Review:
- Prosecutors present evidence, including witness testimonies and documents, to the grand jury.
- Grand jurors evaluate this evidence to determine if there is probable cause to believe that a crime has been committed and that a specific individual or individuals should be charged.
- Indictment or No-Bill:
- If a grand jury finds sufficient evidence, they issue an indictment, which is a formal accusation that initiates criminal proceedings against the accused.
- If the grand jury does not find sufficient evidence, they issue a "no-bill," and no charges are filed.
- No Trial:
- It's important to note that a grand jury does not determine guilt or innocence. Its role is limited to deciding whether there is enough evidence to warrant a trial.
- Prosecutorial Discretion:
- Prosecutors have significant influence over the grand jury process, as they decide which cases to present, what evidence to introduce, and what charges to seek.
- Legal System Variation:
- The use of grand juries varies by jurisdiction. Some jurisdictions rely heavily on grand juries for felony cases, while others use preliminary hearings or direct filing by prosecutors.
According to a new filing, Bryan Kohberger's team alleges that 24 violations took place during the grand jury process and due to those violations, the whole thing should be tossed. The state of Idaho has not yet responded.
