Kansas Supreme Court upholds Tiller grand jury prompted by citizens
The Kansas Supreme Court ruled today today that the state’s system of allowing citizen-petitioned grand juries is constitutional . . .
But the court argued that so long as a grand jury is properly supervised by a judge, there is no violation. The court ruled that it’s up to district court judges who oversee grand juries to prevent harassment . . .
The court also sent three related cases back to the Sedgwick County District Court for further review . . .
