DC Grand Juries Tell Trump's DOJ "NO, We Won't Indict Protestors on Felony Charges!"

from Justice Matters with Glenn Kirschner

It's a rare occurrence when a grand jury refuses to indict a case that a prosecutor urges them to indict. Yet Donald Trump's US Attorney for the District of Columbia, Jeanine Pirro, had grand juries tell her N0, they would NOT indict two protestors for assaulting police officers. In fact, those grand juries told here no FOUR TIMES!One of the protestors threw a sandwich at an officer and another reportedly stepped between a scuffle with officers who were trying to detain someone due to the person's immigration status.The grand jury sits as the conscious of the community and evaluates the evidence presented by the prosecutors to determine if there is enough evidence to indict someone on a felony charge. But the grand jury also is a check on prosecutorial overreach, abuse, and misconduct.For nightly live Law Talks, please join Glenn on Substack: glennkirschner.substack.comIf you're interested in supporting our all-volunteer efforts, you can become a Team Justice patron at: / glennkirschner  If you'd like to support Glenn and buy Team Justice and Justice Matters merchandise visit:https://shop.spreadshirt.com/glennkir...Check out Glenn's website at https://glennkirschner.com/Follow Glenn on:Threads: https://www.threads.net/glennkirschner2Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/glennkirschner2Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/glennkirsch...Bluesky: https://bsky.app/profile/glennkirschn...TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/glennkirschner2See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.
