We are looking into you.

You should take this letter, find an attorney, come and contact us so we can look into whether or not we should charge you or not.

And that's what a target means.

It means we're looking at you.

We're investigating you.

We're probably going to charge you.

All right, so we got to break it down and start from what we said at the beginning.

We're not positive yet.

It gives you an opportunity to come sit down, tell your side of the story, negotiate sometimes and try to get and find a lesser charge.

First, they were subpoenaed.

A subpoena is a command from a court to show up.

You must come.

You must come forth and you must testify.

On the state system, it's exceedingly rare to get a target letter to say that somebody is being looked at.

They filed, through his attorneys, filed a writ of habeas corpus.

Habeas corpus is a fancy Latin phrase that just means you have the body.

But he has, according to the documentation that we've read, because I think the background is his family got a subpoena.

Usually what ends up happening is after somebody is convicted of a crime and they think they were unlawfully or unjustified when they're in their conviction, they file a habeas corpus petition saying that I am being unlawfully detained.

They said they didn't want to go.

They appealed it.
