Coke is still a thing? [Reply]

I don't think you guys understand what a grand jury is. Most people have the misconception that a grand jury means something must be big and important. A grand jury is simply a sort of reversal of a regular jury. On a regular jury, a charge is brought and it's the jury's job to determine guilt or innocence; on a grand jury, information is brought and it's the grand jury's job to determine if there's enough to charge a person and have a trial. I spent a year and a half on a grand jury trying various cases and it's literally that simple, and it wasn't all important stuff (although one case was).

Again, a grand jury isn't even being charged with a crime; it's trying to determine if there's even enough evidence to charge someone. So a grand jury bringing down an indictment simply means, "Okay, now we're going to bring a charge." Then there needs to be a regular jury. A grand jury doesn't mean someone is automatically guilty, although that's the public's assumption; it just means the DA's office REALLY wants to make sure they have a good case before they cause a public spectacle.

$1 million worth of cocaine found in banana box shipments at Washington Safeway stores, police say
Officials in Washington state have opened an investigation after employees at three Safeway stores reported finding over $1 million worth of cocaine that was hidden in boxes of bananas.
The contraband was first reported at a Safeway in Woodinville, about 20 miles northeast of Seattle, on Sunday, the King County Sheriff’s Office said.
Employees were opening a box of bananas and found 22 kilos of cocaine – the equivalent of over $550,000, according to investigators.
Later that day, employees at a Safeway in Bellingham – in northwestern Washington, near the Canadian border – found about 23 kilos of cocaine while unloading banana shipments, Q13 Fox reported.
Additional cocaine turned up in banana shipments at a Federal Way Safeway, but the total amount was unclear.
The origins of the cocaine remained a mystery.
“We do know it was all shipped from a central warehouse, but we don’t know where it originated yet, so that’s a work in progress,” said Sgt. Ryan Abbott of the King County Sheriff's Office.
The Drug Enforcement Agency (DEA) was handling the investigation, he added. [Reply]
