It's my understanding that CP is being handled separate, but as you stated that doesn't mean it can't be tied in to HD's case.....it may well be.
The DA doesn't always go to the GJ..for indictment. Most times the evidence found is enough to charge the perp. I think the GJ is brought in if there is good circumstantial evidence...and the forensics will take some time to get back. Maybe they are waiting for the puter expert's findings...and any witnesses the DA may have at this point-- to testify at GJ---he feels aren't strong enough......or wouldn't feel they would be too truthful, Kwim? Tho you would think if the DA had the forensics back and it definitely pointed to SA with CP....there would be no need for the GJ. ??
I just think it is and has been too quite in SA's world since the beginning of this case. Nothing be brought forward or commented on from anyone with the exception of his cousin and a past paramour.

Not in Texas... "Texas Constitution of 1876 requires grand jury indictment for prosecution of a felony (see CRIMINAL LAW, ENGLISH LAW). The indictment is termed a "true bill" against a prisoner; a decision not to indict is termed a "no bill."
