2. This may sound like good news, but it is not

Evidence is presented to a Grand Jury in secret and the prosecutor gets to decide what evidence is submitted and what is kept away from the jury. Because this prosecutor seems to be on Wilson's side I have no confidence that he is going to make a strong case for prosecution, he will likely present evidence that makes it look like self defense so the Grand Jury will not indict.

A Grand Jury is an easy way for them to sweep this all under the rug, we want a public trial not a Grand Jury.
