2.9: What is the Writ of Habeous Corpus?
(also spelled "Habeas Corpus")
It is a petition by the people to the court. It is called the
Great Writ. It means "Why are you holding this person!?" It is
a demand to show just cause of action, or release the person
from custody.
These Writs are RARE these days, and no one seems to
understand how they work. People will tell you that they
must be issued by a judge, which is absurd, if it is the
judges that are corrupt!
If there is corruption of the cops, courts, etc., and
someone is jailed unjustly, then try to get the Grand Jury
to issue this Writ. The Grand Jury is really just "The
People", which is you and your friends and family. Create
your own writ. Post it up in front of the Courthouse,
jail, and police station. Demand the release of the
innocent. Demand due process!
