"Since the 17th century, grand jury proceedings have been closed to the public; and records of such proceedings have been kept from the public eye. The rule of grand jury secrecy . . . is an integral part of our criminal justice system."Source
— Douglas Oil Co. v. Petrol Stops Northwest, 441 U.S. 211, 218 n.9 (1979)
(Quoted as legal precedent to justify redactions related to grand jury secrecy and to protect the integrity of an ongoing investigation.)
