MN - Journalist Don Lemon arrested for church protest, Minneapolis, 18 Jan 2026

It is not necessarily rare that they are requested. It is rare that the request is granted.

IMO.

I do not recall the transcripts being given in the Starr investigation of Bill Clinton, though some of Clinton's video testimony was released.

Well, there was no grand jury involved there.

It was a congressional investigation.

You are right that GJ transcripts are rarely released.

Please read the motion to see why this situation may very well be an exception- as was a recent, similar US case.

Yes, there was: https://www.npr.org/1998/07/27/1034469/starr-grand-jury-investigation

There was also a grand jury investigation in Watergate, in addition to the Ervin Committee and finally the House Judiciary Committee.

There were a number of GJ cases since this nation was born.

Rarely has the work of the GJ been made public. You are right about this.

Please read the motion for why the case that is the topic of this thread is very likely going to be an exception, as was another recent federal case.
