Grand Jury and Court Martial Response

Write a 700-word response to the following questions:

  • What function does a grand jury serve? What function does a trial jury serve?
  • Many states have replaced grand juries with prosecutors who are authorized to charge crimes by filing sworn information. Some, however, require a grand jury indictment before a person is charged with a capital crime. Does replacement of the indictment function of grand juries at the state level with prosecutors authorized to charge crimes by filing sworn information impair the rights of citizens charged with crimes?
  • Explain each of the three classes of court-martial (summary, special, and general) and indicate who presides over each individual class.

Format your response consistent with APA guidelines, which includes citations and references.
