I think you are probably confusing the word "accusation" for the word 'indictment.' Grand Juries hand down indictments. An indictment is a formal charge issued by a grand jury stating that there is enough evidence that the defendant committed the crime to justify having a trial; it is used primarily for felonies.

A common false statement about a grand jury is that it determines guilt or innocence. In reality, a grand jury's function is to review evidence presented by the prosecution to decide whether there is enough probable cause to indict someone and proceed to trial. It does not evaluate the case in terms of guilt or innocence, which is the role of a trial jury.
