Johnny S. Clarke & Lisa Straub- young Ohio couple murdered

I wonder if a special grand jury was convened or one just happened to be scheduled. Sure didn't take the jury long to indict, in any case.

So, the Clarkes either need to plead guilty, strike a plea deal, or go to trial.

I've served on a grand jury for three months. I doubt it was scheduled with a special grand jury. When your on the grand jury you typically listen to eight to ten cases a day. You only need eight people to indict someone. And you are not voting on their guilt your are simply voting on probable cause. In my experience about 95 percent of the cases get indicted. Also the grand jury atlas tin New Mexico can add or remove charges. So in the case with maytee based on testimony the grand jury could have recommended to the prosecutor to add charges.
