Jag tror inte på detta. Dels är det lätt att hitta mängder av artiklar om sealed indictments 2016 i små distrikt här och där och dels hittade jag exempelvis denna skrift från 2009:
Sealed Cases in Federal Courts
Det är lite statistik över sealed indictments utfärdade 2006.
Alla tillfrågade distrikt har inte svarat (89%) men ändå har de fått in
10,559 sealed indictments, bara för år 2006 alltså.... Alla lär ju inte plockas in direkt heller så att det ligger några tusen sealed indictments "ute" är nog högst normalt..
Här är från sidan 17 i rapporten du länkade till: 2006 alltså 284 sealed indictments, inte 10559.

Sealed Criminal Cases
We found 1,077 sealed criminal cases among 66,458 criminal cases filed in 2006 (1.6%). Among the sealed cases are 241 grand jury matters and warrant-type applications, which most districts would have given magistrate judge or miscellaneous case numbers instead of criminal case num- bers. There were 13 districts with no sealed 2006 criminal cases; 10 of these districts are small, with fewer than six authorized judgeships; four of the districts without sealed civil cases also had no sealed criminal cases. The median percentage of sealed cases among 2006 criminal cases was 0.96% for the 94 district courts.6
The three principal reasons for sealing a criminal case, accounting for 65% of the sealed criminal cases in this research, are (1) sealing the indictment so as to not tip off the defendant un- til the defendant’s apprehension, (2) protecting the identity of a juvenile defendant, and (3) keep- ing secret details of a cooperating defendant’s prosecution. Another 21% of the sealed criminal cases we observed are warrant-type cases that many districts would have given magistrate judge or miscellaneous case numbers instead of criminal case numbers. We classified the cases accord- ing to the predominant reason for their sealing:
• 284 sealed indictments
• 180 juvenile prosecutions
• 70 misdemeanor drug cases, which often are expunged
• 241 criminal cases sealed because of cooperation or ongoing investigations
• 17 sealed transfers of jurisdiction
• 15 grand jury matters
• 226 warrant-type cases
• 4 criminal cases sealed to protect the victims
• 2 criminal cases sealed to protect trade secrets
• 1 criminal case sealed to protect a high-profile defendant
• 1 sealed criminal contempt case related to attorney discipline
• 1 other sealed criminal case
• 12 criminal cases in which the sealing function was used for cases that are not
really sealed
• 23 cases apparently sealed in error
In addition, there are 20 criminal cases that are regarded as sealed in their courts, but were not counted as sealed because some information about them is available on PACER. There were 102 criminal cases that were sealed when we first looked at the data but became unsealed by the time we analyzed the individual courts’ data.
Sealed Indictments
There are 284 sealed indictments filed in 2006 that remained sealed when we analyzed the data. An indictment is sometimes filed under seal and kept sealed until the defendant appears. The
indictment is kept sealed so as to not tip off the defendant. In some districts, indictments are ini- tially sealed as a matter of course. Once the defendant has appeared, the indictment can be un- sealed. If the defendant cooperates with the government’s prosecution of others, who may be de- fendants in the same case or defendants in cases with other case numbers, then the case may re...
Du trodde ingen skulle kolla upp det du påstod, men det är just det vi konspiratoriker gör😀
Jag tycker det är intressant att det är den som totalt förnekar allt detta som är den som ertappas med att ljuga.
