YOUNGSVILLE, N.C. (WTVD) -- Franklin County Sheriff Jerry Jones said Thursday that his deputies were investigating a home invasion and shooting on Shearin Court in Youngsville.
The first call about a woman shot in the head came in at 2:16 a.m.
Jones said investigators determined both entrances to the home were forced in and there were two children in the house at the time.
The children were not hurt. The woman - who was not immediately identified - was taken to an area hospital. She was shot in the face, but is expected to survive.
Jones said 18-year-old Shannon Nyamodi and a 15-year-old girl are currently in custody.
The sheriff said his investigators believe the woman was targeted because she works for a dentist's office and makes deposits for the business.
INTRODUCTION
Habeas corpus (/ˈheɪbiəs ˈkɔrpəs/, Latin for "you [shall] have the body") is the name of a legal action or writ by means of which detainees can seek relief from unlawful imprisonment. The Suspension Clause of the United States Constitution specifically included the English common law procedure in Article One, Section 9, clause 2, which demands that "The privilege of the writ of habeas corpus shall not be suspended, unless when in cases of rebellion or invasion the public safety may require it."
United States law affords persons the right to petition the federal courts for a writ of habeas corpus. Habeas corpus petitions are generally filed as pro se cases, and the government (state or federal) is usually ordered by the court to respond. Individual states also afford persons the ability to petition their own state court systems for habeas corpus pursuant to their respective constitutions and laws when held or sentenced by state authorities.
The federal habeas statute that resulted, with substantial amendments, is now at 28 U.S.C. § 2241:
