PLACERVILLE, Calif. – People invited to participate in Civil Grand Jury interviews are primarily referred to the El Dorado County Civil Grand Jury (Grand Jury) website for information about the process. What happens when the website doesn’t provide sufficient detail to address questions or alleviate concerns regarding what to expect during an interview? The Grand Jury investigated.

The report, “El Dorado County Civil Grand Jury Website,” was published recently at http://www.eldodradocounty.ca.gov/Grand-Jury by the Superior Court, which annually appoints 19 county residents as grand jurors to serve as citizen watchdogs over local government.

According to the report, the Grand Jury conducted a comprehensive review of its website to ensure content was clear and understandable to individuals unfamiliar with the Civil Grand Jury process.

All findings and recommendations can be found in the full report on the County website at https://www.eldoradocounty.ca.gov/Public-Safety-Justice/Safety-Justice/Grand-Jury.
