Basic question about indictments

[pnwmom]

If a person is charged with breaking five laws, is each separate violation laid out in a separate indictment? Or can one indictment list multiple crimes?

In other words, assuming this tweet is correct, does this tell us anything about the number of people charged, or could it be anything from 1 to 25?

1. Multiple counts, same indictment

there is no theoretical limit to how many counts may be in an indictment. It can be a mix of felonies and misdemeanors as well. Twenty five indictments means 25 people or corporations or other entities are in the shitter. There could be multiple indictments in multiple jurisdictions.

2. Wow. But I remember hearing there were more than 40 in Watergate, so this wouldn't

be out of line with that.

3. Is this the total of the two grand juries?

Or just one of them?

4. I don't know.

5. I'm hanging on every new post from you and Coyote and Melissa B and others

And trying to keep up with Claude Taylor and Louise Mensch too, though I'm not very adept at Twitter.

Contrary to many, I have a lot of faith in what these folks have to report. The mainstream media should be ashamed that they're not able to keep up with homespun reporting.
