Is a federal grand jury criminally investigating Trump? An explainer of how grand juries work

from Justice Matters with Glenn Kirschner

There has been an explosion of headlines in recent days announcing that the Department of Justice is criminally investigating Donald Trump. Specifically, Washington Post investigative journalist Carol Leonnig has reported some of the precise questions federal prosecutors have been asking witnesses in the grand jury about the statements, conduct and behavior of Donald Trump. But a debate has arisen about whether the DOJ has or has not "opened a grand jury investigation on Donald Trump." That question is more semantics than substance. This video is an explainer of the two most common ways prosecutors open or initiate grand jury investigation and the difference between the two.
