Why were the juror names released? Is that customary?

No, it's not. I'm guessing a MAGA that works within the GA court system got hold of the names and published them specifically so they could be targeted and harassed.

EDIT: thanks to @solidgrue for the correction. I spoke too quickly, and didn't have a full understanding of GA law.

No, in Georgia you have to release the names or the indictment is defective.

  • Indictment that failed to show the names of the grand jurors who found the indictment is defective. Willerson v. State, 14 Ga. App. 451, 81 S.E. 391 (1914).

Indictment would have been defective had the indictment failed to show the names of the grand jurors who returned the indictment. Hawkins v. State, 260 Ga. 138, 390 S.E.2d 836 (1990).
