A quick definition of additional grand jury:

An additional grand jury is a group of people who are chosen to sit for at least a month and decide whether to issue indictments. They evaluate evidence and decide if there is enough to charge someone with a crime. If they decide there is, they return a bill of indictment. There are different types of grand juries, including investigative, runaway, and screening grand juries. An additional grand jury is a special grand jury that is summoned when the regular grand jury has already been discharged or has not been drawn.

A more thorough explanation:

An additional grand jury is a type of grand jury that is specially summoned when the regular grand jury has already been discharged or has not been drawn. It has limited authority and is also known as a special or extraordinary grand jury.

For example, if a regular grand jury has completed its term and there are still pending cases that require a grand jury, an additional grand jury may be summoned to handle those cases. This type of grand jury is not permanent and only serves for a limited time.

Another example is when a high-profile case requires a grand jury with specialized knowledge or expertise. In such cases, an additional grand jury may be summoned to handle the case.

Overall, an additional grand jury is a temporary solution to handle cases that cannot be handled by the regular grand jury.

Nah, the fucked up thing about therapists is they try and make you think your parents are your enemy 99% of the time and really they should be telling you that your parents have almost no effect on the rest of your life. If they can get you to keep focusing on your parents they can keep making money.
