Prosecutors know how to get an indictment when they want one. We hear that cases involving police killings get treated differently in an effort to have more transparency, or perhaps to allow grand juries in these cases to make a "more informed" decision. I don't buy this anymore. It doesn't provide more transparency, it plants doubt in a group that isn't supposed to be wrestling with any notion of "beyond a reasonable doubt". I served on a high-profile grand jury case once. I came away deeply disillusioned with how this process is said to work, and how it actually works.
