Love your post 2 points of note.

The Flynn video is from 2016 so is out of context iirc.

The sealed indictments are probably not all arrests a sealed indictment can be applied to a witness that holds no criminal liability. So the hammer may go down on them all and they all get a speedy trial dont lose hope. I estimate that its about a ratio of 7 witnesses per arrest, leaving about 7k actual arrests which could be staggered over weeks / months I'm sure they will take pleas or rat each other out so only a few might make it to trial.

All is well

Sealed indictments are not applied to a witness. An indictment is a formal accusation of a felony. The 55,000 indictments are for Felony charges which may or may not be presented to a court.

If you look at some of the comparible cases such as large tax fraud / evasion cases witnesses were served via sealed indictment. I could still be wrong here but we spent a decent portion of time on cbts back when it was first noticed comparing cases.

Witnesses, including the target, are issued Subpoena to testify before a Grand Jury. The GJ simply listens to the testimony and if they feel that there is Probable Cause that the target committed a felony or felonies then they issue an indictment for those felonies. An Indictment is actually a Probable cause findings of the Grand Jury.

Not a problem. Will be interesting to see how it all breaks down. Some will be Juveniles, which will remain Sealed. Then there will be the normal indictments that happen every year. I would imagine there will be a higher then normal amount of gang related ones since MS13 is a big target. It is definitely going to be a show.
