The Not So Grand Jury - The Story of the Federal Grand Jury System (Paperback)

This is a first person, insider report of what goes on in an institution which, the author believes, is too thickly shrouded from public view by traditions of secrecy. Blank reports on the Federal Grand Jury's daily practice, true costs and serious problems. Armed with a two year stint on a federal grand jury, careful background research and many interviews, she provides insights into the myths and truths of the system. Blank also suggests a number of reforms intended to revive productivity.
