Description
On petition of the district attorney a special grand jury was called to investigate "charges of unnecessary roughness, assault and brutality, against law enforcement officers of the city and county of Denver." July 15, 1946 it was instructed, inter alia: "It is your duty, as a body, to investigate and inquire into alleged infractions of the laws of this commonwealth. In so doing, you may call before you such persons as you believe may throw light upon the matter under investigation and you may examine such persons as witnesses. * * * Unlike the jury sitting in the trial of a cause, you will hear only witnesses for the people, * * *. You are not limited by these instructions in the scope of your investigations."
