Origins of the Indictment

The indictment is a formal accusation issued through the grand jury process, historically used to determine whether sufficient evidence exists to bring a criminal case to trial. The practice developed within early English common law as a procedural safeguard intended to place the power of accusation in the hands of a body of citizens rather than solely with government officials.
