A county prosecutor in Upper Marlboro, Md., spent more than two hours briefing members of a grand jury that is investigating the cocaine-induced death of former Maryland basketball star Len Bias.
Arthur A. Marshall Jr., state’s attorney for Prince George’s County, would not disclose what went on behind the closed doors of the grand jury room. Grand jury members also refused to discuss the investigation.
Marshall said last week that he would use Tuesday’s session to bring the grand jury up to date on the police inquiry into the death of Bias, who collapsed in his dormitory room June 19, two days after being drafted by the NBA champion Boston Celtics.
The grand jury will not meet again to take up the Bias case until July 21.
