There's no way to know what's really going on because no one involved in the grand jury procedure is permitted to talk about it. If this was nothing but a fishing expedition and not a legitimate potential case then why is the judge allowing it, why is the prosecutor permitted to do it, and why would he/she risk it, and why are the citizen jurists not having a problem with it especially when grand juries are specifically barred from conducting fishing expeditions as opposed to legitimate investigation? Seeing as vandalism did occur during the protest/s that is/are being investigated that in itself certainly sounds like the grand jury is conducting a legitimate investigation as opposed to some fishing expedition. To assume that it must be some fishing expedition just because we aren't permitted to know what the grand jury is doing because of the built in secrecy is really pretty ridiculous.
