The Georgia Grand Jury

% of readers think this story is Fact. Add your two cents.


Emily Kohrs

A great legal controversy is brewing over the Fulton County (Georgia) grand jury investigation into charges that former-President Trump illegally tried to get the results of the Georgia presidential election overturned.  What has caused a firestorm are the TV interviews with the young woman, Emily Kohrs, who served as the grand jury foreperson. Astoundingly, this obviously immature young woman has discussed the grand jury proceedings on CNN, MSNBC, and others, coyly implying that the grand jury voted to recommend charges against Trump and several others. As a former DEA agent, I have testified at several grand juries, and I am shocked that this woman would violate the grand jury secrecy laws by going on a media blitz.

Like federal grand juries, the Georgia state grand juries are governed by strict secrecy laws. They are not adversarial proceedings with defense counsel, defendants  (as yet, there are no defendants), defense witnesses etc. They are a tool of the prosecution. Therefore, the secrecy laws also serve to protect the rights of potential defendants from unfair publicity, especially since some persons under investigation may never be charged.

What this young woman has done is to undermine the very sanctity of our criminal justice system. Her silly, giggly manner and her weird facial expressions call into particular question the fairness and seriousness of the Georgia criminal system itself. In short, her actions are a prosecutor’s worst nightmare.

No doubt, lawyers for Trump and anyone else who might be indicted are chomping at the bit to go into court and ask the judge for a dismissal of all charges, and if I were the judge, I would do so. The best thing the prosecutors in Georgia involved in this case would be to scrap any recommendation from this grand jury and impanel a new grand jury-in short, start all over again.

And shame on our news media for putting this woman in front of a camera and asking her about their deliberation/decision on Trump etc. al. They knew it was unethical and damaging to our judicial system, but their zeal to nail Trump once again prevailed.

      But was it a good thing?

      So stealing elections is better? Maybe less of a crime? Trick question your vote never mattered and was never counted in your lifetime. Get over it. You live under a shadow dictatorship that was set up by the CIA after they killed JFK. Read a history book and educate yourself as to when America was sold out. Has been on a downward slide ever since then. Everyone involved in Politics is part of the same criminal cartel. Both sides are owned. Wake up to the reality of your world.
