I do not believe the Grand Jury was a joke or rigged. However, I thought the prosecutor dropped the ball by not charging the witnesses that lied. Things like the "hands up" nonsense, he was walking away, gentle giant, he was surrendering - all proven to be lies by actual eye witnesses that were actually present and saw, i.e. witnessed, the ordeal. Many of the liars were not even present. But I get why the prosecutor didn't want o go after them, I just disagree with the decision to let them skate.
