Answer:
Jury.
Explanation:
A jury is a group of people selected or chosen by lawyers and judges through the process of "voir dire". This body of jurors includes twelve people and would sit in a box to one side of a courtroom. They will also be responsible to determine and help decide the case fairly.
Criminal indictments are issued by juries in felony cases. This means that out of the twelve jurors, if nine members found or believe that there is sufficient evidence to hold the accused for trial, then the accused is subjected to criminal indictment.
