Last month, Mr. Watkins said his office was “duty bound” to follow Ohio law and move forward with a grand jury proceeding after Judge Terry Ivanchak of Municipal Court found probable cause for the grand jury review to proceed.

At some point, the more important duty becomes to refuse to cooperate with even "lawful" christofascist tyranny. The "just following orders" excuse didn't work for Nazi concentration camp guards, and I'm not so sure it works for these judicial officials either!
