Perhaps because the implications and repercussions of the case were far beyond the capabilities and practicalities of a normal (petit) jury?

Charges involving "capital or infamous crimes" under federal jurisdiction must be presented to a grand jury, under the Fifth Amendment to the United States Constitution.
