What is the process of a secret indictment?

A secret indictment, also known as a sealed indictment, is a legal process where a grand jury issues an indictment without notifying the defendant or the public. This typically occurs to prevent the defendant from fleeing, destroying evidence, or influencing witnesses before the arrest. Once the indictment is issued, law enforcement can arrest the individual, at which point the indictment becomes unsealed and publicly accessible. This process is designed to balance the need for law enforcement with the rights of the accused.
