grand jury

Etymology
From, from. Named because it typically has more jurors than the petit jury.

Noun

 * 1)  A group of citizens assembled by the government to hear evidence against an accused, and determine whether an indictment for a crime should be brought.
 * 2) * 19 December 2014, Paul M Farber in Online, Die-ins demand that we bear witness to black people's fears that they'll be next
 * Though the current wave of die-ins began after grand juries in Ferguson and New York City refused to indict the cops who used lethal force against Michael Brown and Eric Garner, they tap into a deep well of what professor Salamishah Tillet calls “civic estrangement” from a state that ignores excessive police violence against black and brown people.
 * 1)  The legal process that uses such a jury
