[QUOTE="TerryMiller, post: 2840234, member: 7900"] [FONT=Georgia][SIZE=3] Actually, I think the grand juries are presented evidence specifically chosen by the prosecutors without there being any other evidence, say from the defendants' attorneys, that is allowed to be presented to the grand jury. Thus, it isn't hard for a Texas prosecutor to, as they say, "indict an ham sandwich." Wasn't it Tom DeLay that was indicted by a grand jury? Didn't he get off because the evidence wasn't sufficient for a conviction? I don't remember for sure on his outcome. At any rate, it is a lot harder to get a conviction than it is to get an indictment. So, if one of the prosecutors is connected to Planned Parenthood, they would very much be able to skew the evidence shown to the grand jury. Trust me, grand juries aren't always the brightest bulbs in the pack. Same with juries...I had a co-worker that was drawn to be a juror on a drug case. She astounded me when she told me that the rest of the jury had no idea that possession of drugs with the intent to sell was a more serious crime than simple possession. Personally, I'll just wait to see what the legal system ends up doing in this case. [/SIZE][/FONT] [/QUOTE]
