Let's be fair to these individuals and not presume guilt.

In the US, it's "innocent until proven guilty".

Media is so quick to assume the person is guilty just because of an allegation.

That's the standard for our criminal justice system, not for us as individuals. It sounds from the release that the justice department has a boatload of compelling evidence against them.

You'd hope that before someone is arrested, the prosecutor has ample evidence to prove guilt.

I don't understand your point.

These individuals have not been proven guilty yet. Why are you editorializing their presumed guilt in this matter.

Note: I have no affiliation with these individuals nor case.

Grand juries indict in >99% of cases. It's just a rubber-stamp. The grand jury only hears the prosecutor's side. They can say pretty much anything. Please find me a case where a prosecutor or LEO was charged with perjury for lying to a grand jury.

I've been indicted twice and both times the grand jury transcripts were just lies.

In fact, I got someone released after 16 months in jail on a burglary charge because their grand jury was lies. The story the cop told was a complete fabrication.
