Homicides are the most serious cases we handle with the greatest harm to victims. In 2020, our homicide team secured 3 indictments - one of which I personally presented to the grand jury. (By comparison in 2019 the entire office didn't secure any grand jury indictments.)

My understanding is the indictments are uncommon in California criminal prosecutions. Why did you elect not to proceed by information (i.e. public preliminary hearings)?

You get to skip the prelim if you do the grand jury.

That's why I'm asking. Grand jury is less transparent.
