Why are some up in arms that our State Attorney, Dave Aronberg, wants the tragic death of Corey Jones to go to a Grand Jury? And now we have this terrorist group Anonymous entering the picture. In our system, people are innocent until proven otherwise. We can't go around lynching people as some would like to happen in this case.
A grand jury is a panel of citizens called for service just like a trial jury (also called a “petit jury”) in a criminal or civil case. But a grand jury’s function is different. A prosecutor presents evidence and the grand jurors decide whether it establishes that the accused probably committed a crime. The grand jurors don’t decide guilt or innocence, only whether the person should be charged. If the grand jury decides that the accused probably committed a crime, then it will issue an indictment, effectively bringing criminal charges against the accused. Source: NOLO
Let the system work. Dave Aronberg is crossing the T's and dotting the I's. As Aronberg said, “I’d ask people not to jump to conclusions until it’s done.” He will do his job fairly and honestly for both parties. That's his job.
