Quote:
Grand Jury:
The function of the Grand Jury is not to determine guilt or innocence, but only whether there is probable cause to believe that a crime has been committed and a specific person or persons committed it. If the grand jury finds probable cause exists to suspect a person of having committed a crime, then it will return a written statement of the charges called an “indictment.” After that, the person will stand trial.
Grand Jurors will be coming from locations throughout the forty-six counties of the Northern District of Georgia for regular meetings in the City of Atlanta. From a larger number of prospective jurors summoned and reporting, a Grand Jury panel consisting of twenty-three persons will be randomly selected to serve.

tl:dr - the Defense lawyers aren’t involved at this stage, but it’s a random selection of 23 jurors.
Also, Georgia trials can be televised…
