reindicted
Accused once more
Reindicted means indicted again—formally charged with a crime by a grand jury after a previous indictment on the same or related charges.
This typically happens when an earlier indictment was dismissed, when new evidence emerges, or when prosecutors seek additional or revised charges: He was reindicted on federal conspiracy charges after the original case was thrown out.
