Right. But remember this grand jury heard only what Nifong let it hear and nothing more. You can bet the GJ heard that a rape exam showed "injuries consistent with a sexual assault" but heard nothing about the DNA results. None of the LAX boys or their attorneys ever appeared before the GJ. The DA runs that show.

OK, thanks.

I was ignorant of the fact that the GJ sequence is a prosecutor-dominated event. "Sufficient evidence to proceed"...I suppose.

Why do we even have grand juries? They're more like grand inquisitions.
