Under Georgia law, names of grand jurors are publicly listed on indictments — an effort at transparency that some have questioned in light of ongoing threats in the aftermath of the charges against Trump and 18 others accused of conspiring to overturn Georgia’s 2020 presidential election results.
To a layman, publishing the identities of grand jury members involved in high profile cases seems incredibly stupid. Average people called to perform a civic duty are put in harms way for …better transparency?
Anyone care to play devil’s advocate and explain why grand juror identities are publicly relevant information? Why does this law exist?
