What is a grand jury and how does it work in Aiken County
The article explains that a grand jury in Aiken County consists of 18 residents plus six carry-overs, serving one or two year terms. It meets monthly at the Judicial Center to review about 200 to 250 cases with only the State presenting evidence, and a true bill requires 12 of the jurors to agree. If not enough evidence, a no bill ends the case. Jurors vote in secret and are exempt from other juror service during their term.
