Giuliani: Wilson Case Never Should Have Gone to a Grand Jury

On “Fox News Sunday,” former New York City Mayor Rudy Giuliani said the question of if Ferguson police officer Darren Wilson used excessive force in the fatal shooting of Michael Brown should have never even gone to a grand jury.

“Having read the transcripts of the Grand Jury, and having been a prosecutor for thirteen years, I don’t see how this case normally would even have been brought to the Grand Jury. This is the kind of case, had it not had the racial overtones and the national publicity, in which the prosecutor would have come to the conclusion that there was not enough evidence to bring to the Grand Jury.”

“Attorney General Holder’s gonna have to take a case in which a jury couldn’t find probably cause to indict, and he’s gonna have to try to find probable cause in front of a federal Grand Jury. It’s an impossible case to present to a Grand Jury,” he added. 

A frustrated Giuliani ended saying, “Nobody wants to read these transcripts.”
