>How are they sealed?
By a grand jury. It is the grand jury's determination that there is enough evidence that the defendant committed the crime to justify having a trial voted by a grand jury.
>How are they secured?
A federal magistrate judge to whom an indictment is returned may direct that the indictment be kept secret until the defendant is in custody or has been released pending trial.
The clerk must then seal the indictment, and no person may disclose the indictment's existence except as necessary to issue or execute a warrant or summons.
>How are they safeguarded?
An attorney for the government will retain control of the recording, the reporter’s notes, and any transcript prepared from those notes.
>No leaks [unusual?]
This probably has something to do with magistrate judges or judge at federal level, sealing them and sending them to each state, Sealed.
Not sure if role of Federal Magistrate Judge is even applicable here.
Lawfag might know.
>Federal vs ….
All done on federal level to keep the circle of people who have to know very small.
>Why are accusations sealed?
A sealed indictment will stop the suspect from discovering that he's being investigated and fleeing the jurisdiction.
The grand jury may also return a sealed indictment to protect the identities of witnesses or to buy time so the police can investigate people complicit in crimes.
>Grand jury involved?
Yes.
Right now there are over 28,000 sealed indictments.
Questions.
What if there are a ton of judges on that list?
How would state judge vacancies be filled?
Emergency/temporary/Executive fulfillment ?
