Original Note:
Tweet misstates the law; even if a witness made this allegation, and even if it were proven true, that would not be prosecutorial misconduct. Prosecutors have wide discretion as to what evidence to show a grand jury, since the grand jury does not decide guilt. https://www.stroock.com/uploads/NYLJ-JC-The-Ethics-of-a-One-Sided-Grand-Jury-Presentation.pdf
