Socrates does not tell the jury what it wants to hear because he prioritizes truth and integrity over appeasing others. He believes in questioning assumptions and seeking knowledge through dialogue and critical thinking. By refusing to compromise his principles, Socrates demonstrates his commitment to philosophical inquiry and his belief in the importance of intellectual honesty, even in the face of potential consequences.
A Grand Jury is a term where, basically, the state puts their case to the Grand Jury and the Jury basically tells them if they believe that there is a case to answer.

Justice is different for every man
Socrates challenged the jury in the Apology by arguing that questioning authority and seeking knowledge should be valued over conforming to societal norms. He maintained that it was better to live a life searching for wisdom and truth, even if it meant facing opposition and being misunderstood, than to live in ignorance.
The jury in Athens voted to execute Socrates by a margin of 280 to 220, finding him guilty of corrupting the youth and impiety. He was given the opportunity to suggest an alternate punishment but chose to stick by his principles and opted not to propose a different penalty, leading to his eventual death by drinking poison hemlock.
Following the trial of Socrates, the jury is said to have condemned Socrates to death by poison. Socrates, however, may have had the chance to flee this fate, by escaping out of Athens and living the remainder of his life as an exile. The Crito, is an explanation of the philosophical reasoning as to why Socrates chose to remain in Athens and face his death sentence rather than abandon his philosophical positions.
