Legal Answers
1 Questions Answered
- Q. Concern about possible misconduct in Texas murder case due to confidential grand jury information shared on social media.
- A: The social media posts you describe don't appear to show prosecutorial misconduct. Texas grand jury secrecy laws protect what happens inside the grand jury room—the evidence, testimony, and deliberations—not scheduling information about when meetings occur. Texas law actually requires prosecutors to keep crime victims informed about important case developments, including when their case will be presented to a grand jury and any scheduling changes. The family member's posts about timing and rescheduling reflect normal victim communication, not confidential information. The prosecutor change is likely unrelated since no actual legal violation appears to have happened.
