On reviewing the government’s evidence, Holmes Conrad had concluded that although the evidence might be insufficient to find Perry S. Heath guilty, it was sufficient to warrant an indictment by the grand jury, who would then decide on the sufficiency of the evidence. The district attorney subsequently ruled the evidence insufficient, dismissing the grand jury, and Conrad does not believe any public good is to be gained by reconvening them.
