Evidence

The grand jury is not bound to hear evidence for the defendant, but it is their duty to weigh all the evidence before them. If they believe that other evidence will explain away the charge, they should order the evidence to be produced. Crim. Code, § 102; C. & M. Dig., § 2988; Pope's Dig., § 3810; A.S.A. 1947, § 43-918; Acts 2005, No. 1994, § 320.
