Unlike criminal cases prosecuted under Indiana law, federal criminal cases are generally commenced by an indictment issued by a grand jury. A United States attorney must present evidence to the grand jury over the course of weeks or months in order to obtain an indictment. Most of the evidence is testimony from federal agents investigating a particular federal crime. However, some evidence comes from persons of interest, subjects, targets or merely witnesses to the offense under investigation. Any of these people may also be called to testify in front of the federal grand jury.
It is crucial to have an experienced Indiana federal criminal defense attorney protecting your rights from the earliest stages of the case. The federal crimes defense lawyers at The Law Offices of Tony Zirkle can work with the U.S. Attorney’s office to determine your status in the investigation while advising you about your risk and criminal exposure.

-
Never try to outsmart a federal agent or investigation on your own.
-
Never believe anything a federal law enforcement agent tells you.
