when dwayne borrows $15,000, he gets a visit from the internal affairs board (iab). apparently, the iab had already convened a grand jury to investigate him for using his city budget to take his girlfriend out to eat at expensive restaurants. what is next for dwayne?
o a. he will be indicted by a grand jury.
o b. he will be charged.
o c. he will have a presentment issued against him.
o d. he will be arrested.

Explanation:

In the United States legal system, when a grand jury is convened to investigate, the next step if there is sufficient evidence is for the grand jury to indict (formally accuse) the person. Charging is more of a prosecutor - level action before grand - jury involvement in some cases. A presentment is a less formal accusation by a prosecutor. Arrest is usually a more immediate action by law enforcement, but here the process is through the grand jury.

Answer:

A. He will be indicted by a grand jury.
