Grand Jury Declines to Indict Anyone in Death of Sandra Bland | 21 Dec 2015 | Grand jurors in Texas declined on Monday to indict anyone in connection to the July death of a Chicago-area woman, Sandra Bland, at the Waller County jail, one of the special prosecutors assigned to the case said. But Darrell Jordan, the special prosecutor, said that “the case is still open,” and that grand jurors would reconvene next month to discuss other aspects of the case. Many activists have called for charges against Brian Encinia, the Texas state trooper who arrested Ms. Bland after a routine traffic stop turned contentious. Mr. Jordan said Monday's decision not to indict anyone related only to Ms. Bland's death and to the conduct of the jail staff.
