And there were two grand juries.

There was a state grand jury and there was a federal grand jury.

The state grand jury, and I don't know if your viewers or listeners are familiar with how grand juries work, but they're very easy to corrupt.

There was a New York state judge that said special prosecutors of grand juries have so much power over grand juries that they could get them to indict a ham sandwich.

And grand jurors, I mean, like when we think of grand jury, we think it's like a decree from the guys of jurisprudence.

Yeah, it sounds like a greater deal than a regular jury.

But with a grand jury, grand jurors are just people that have shown up for jury duty and they've been funneled to a grand jury.

And a special prosecutor is chosen and these are just citizens.

They don't know anything about this case.

And the special prosecutor is responsible for calling witnesses and then showing the grand jurors evidence.
