SUMMARY AS INTRODUCED:

Special grand juries. Authorizes an attorney for the Commonwealth to request a special grand jury to investigate criminal activity within his jurisdiction in much the same way as may currently be done with regard to criminal activity that crosses jurisdictional lines. The procedures would be similar to those applicable to the multi-jurisdictional grand juries. The special grand jury will have the power to investigate and to indict.
