With the news breaking yesterday that Manhattan District Attorney Cy Vance has convened a grand jury to investigate and potentially indict former president Trump for criminal acts, it’s a good time to review what exactly a grand jury is, how it deliberates, what it will look at in this case, and what the likely outcome is. I’ll confine my answers to how things work in New York State, as the rules and procedures may vary in other states.
I really enjoy your classes. Thanks for taking Clarity seriously.
