Septicemia is a serious bloodstream infection. Itâs also known as bacteremia, or blood poisoning. Septicemia occurs when a bacterial infection elsewhere in the body, such as in the lungs or skin, enters the bloodstream. This is dangerous because the bacteria and their toxins can be carried through the bloodstream to your entire body.
Grand juries make the initial decision to indict--formally accuse--a criminal defendant and require him or her to stand trial. Grand jury indictments are required for all federal felonies. About half the states have some sort of grand jury hurdle too. Grand jurors are ordinary citizens who listen to the prosecutor questioning witnesses.
Grand Jurors sit with 22 other jurors for a term of several months to consider evidence presented by the prosecutor. 1  Grand Jurors do not serve on a trial, like Trial Jurors. 2  The grand jury does not decide the guilt or innocence of the accused.  The grand juryâs work is a pre-trial function of the court.
