Oklahoma multicounty grand jury to reconvene
OKLAHOMA CITY (AP) Oklahoma's multicounty grand jury is scheduled to reconvene in Oklahoma City.
The panel will meet Tuesday through Thursday this week at the Oklahoma Attorney General's Office.
Assistant Attorney General Charles Rogers is the chief of the attorney general's Multicounty Grand Jury Unit and will lead the panel. So far the grand jury has returned 18 indictments in cases filed in Cleveland, Harper, McClain, Oklahoma and Pittsburg counties.
Attorney General Scott Pruitt requested the grand jury and approved by the Oklahoma Supreme Court in January 2011.
The multicounty grand jury has jurisdiction to investigate criminal matters in all 77 counties. The proceedings are closed to the public.
The state's 12th multicounty grand jury concluded in Sept. 2010 with 10 indictments and assisted 145 federal, state and local law enforcement agencies.
