18. I'm still thinking Wednesday with "sealed" indictments, but not like 2
Not Sealed as in the indictments issued for mobsters. the specifics for requiring keeping the mobster's name secret until they are in custody is so the mobster is not whacked before cops can get to him.

Nope, we will know every name, and most charges.

The "sealed" part will be that certain facts about the indictments will not be known. Those portions of the indictments will be blacked out, or redacted.

There may also be some charges that are redacted from public knowledge due to the sensitive National Security nature. All other bits redacted from the released information wil also be due to National Security concerns.

The Grand Jury won't be able to speak of the case as they will be held under similar constraints as former CIA agents or military personnel who had the highest security classifications.
