IANAL, but grand juries do a lot of work before the charges are filled. For example, they check whether there's a probable cause for a search warrant.


Do you know how grand juries are selected? I find it weird that I've been selected for a trial jury a bunch of times but never a grand jury.


Get a bigger hat, it's right there in the name.


AFAIK, they are selected the same way as trial jury. I think the main problem is that there's less need for grand juries since they process information much more quickly than trial juries.
