A Waller County, Texas grand jury found probable cause to indict the arresting officer in the Sandra Bland case for perjury.

However, if Bland was not a victim of homicide, what sort of charges were special prosecutors seeking indictments on? What evidence was presented? Information is lacking because of the secrecy of grand juries. Is it time to abolish secret grand juries in the United States in the name of transparency.

Wilbourn has pled not guilty and maintains he was acting in self-defense and was in fear for his life when he said Bolton started manhandling him even though he was complying with the cop’s commands.
