Who was fearing a grand jury hearing?

  We were told that both Scott Rogers and Mathew Hodgkinson were to appear in front of a grand jury, on that same morning both were reported dead. Both major UK papers had an interview with none other than our esteemed sheriff when he relayed that Mr Rogers was scheduled to appear... at his own grand jury hearing. Why is that unusual?

... because the defendant doesn't show up at any grand jury hearing, that's the prosecutor's show. The prosecutor gets the witnesses he feels will offer testimony to convince a jury of between 16 and 23 people that a crime was committed. The defendant is never called since it would rob him any chance of a fair trial. It isn't how it's done.

  The sheriff had a few days to get his story straight before contacting the British media so it's safe to dig further with the info we were given. If Scott Rogers was called to testify at a grand jury hearing, he certainly was not the target the hearing, but a witness. No federal prosecutor would confirm that there was a federal probe much less a grand jury hearing scheduled.

  Rogers and Hodgkinson were the whistleblowers that reported a hidden payment made to a personal friend and associate to Mayor Kip Holden, Rannah Gray. The payment was forced quietly by the director of MOSHEP piggybacked through a contract with 1stco, Inc, the business managed by Rogers and Hodgkinson. Instead the two men reported the contract anomaly to the state and returned the overage that was paid out by MOSHEP.

  Did this hearing have anything to do with a probe of hidden payment methods through the Baton Rouge Mayor's office? Did having the main two witnesses turn up dead stop it?
