§ 333 Evidence before grand jury.

When a grand jury looks into a possible crime, they can review evidence in a few different ways. They can read written testimony from witnesses who already spoke at an earlier preliminary hearing on the same charge. They can also look at sworn statements that the district attorney prepared, without needing those witnesses to show up in person. On top of that, the grand jury can bring in witnesses directly to testify and answer questions in front of them.

The grand jury can also accept official documents as evidence, as long as those documents are legally valid. This gives them flexibility to build a full picture of what happened using different sources of information, not just live witness testimony.

Finally, if the grand jury is considering more than one charge or more than one person, they must vote on each charge separately. They cannot lump charges together in one single vote. Each accusation has to stand on its own and get its own decision.
