WHERE ARE THE GRAND JURIES IN HARRIS COUNTY?



Harris County District Attorney Pat Lykos is facing a lot of tough questions.  Many are asking why there aren't any new Harris County Grand Juries in place.  Judges say a new state law changes how long a panel serves and most grand juries ended back in December but no new ones have been picked.  Lykos says she doesn't see it as a problem and no criminals will go free.  Felons must be indicted by a grand jury within 90 days of their arrest or be released on bond.  The current grand jury selection process is expected to begin sometime this week!
