Big questions are being asked about the recent grand jury hearing about the shooting of Michael Brown in Ferguson, for example, whether justice was served. But there are simpler questions, too: When and why is a grand jury called? What's the prosecutor's role, in a grand jury hearing and otherwise? Who are the jurors, and why is their selection process a secret?
Guests:
- Sue McGraugh, professor of law, St. Louis University
- Jean Peters-Baker, county prosecutor, Jackson County, Mo.
