Kramer & Costanza, formerly a New York law firm, closed its doors and moved to Washington state after Kosmo Kramer made a pass at a female judge during a bench-bar mixer. Mr. Kramer hired Allison as a paralegal and began practicing criminal law (after being admitted to the Washington bar) . Kramer's first client, Mr. Newman, was an investment broker who had been subpoenaed to appear before a grand jury. The grand jury was investigating a real estate partnership that went bankrupt after Newman convinced several people to invest in the partnership. Newman called Allison at a time when Kramer was out of the office, and Newman asked Allison, "This grand jury thing, they're just going to ask me questions, right? I don't have to worry about the grand jury coming after me, right?" And then, "Kosmo's going to be there with me, right?" From the following options, what is best response that Allison can give?
A) Explain that the members of the grand jury will ask him questions and that grand jury will tell him if he is a subject of the investigation, but that attorneys are not allowed to accompany witnesses to grand jury hearings.
B) Explain that the prosecutor at the grand jury will ask him questions, but that grand jury proceedings are secret and that a witness's attorneys may ask follow-up questions.
C) Explain that the prosecutor and members of the grand jury will ask him questions, and that grand jury proceedings are open to the public and that attorneys are permitted to accompany witnesses to grand jury hearings.
D) Explain that the prosecutor at the grand jury will ask him questions, but that grand jury proceedings are secret and that attorneys are not allowed to accompany witnesses into grand jury hearings.
