Bennett v. Robbins: Habeas Corpus Appeal by Scribd Government Docs is a document available to read on EtoBox.
Otto Bennett, a prisoner serving a 5-10 year sentence for statutory rape in Maine State Prison, filed an application for habeas corpus in federal district court alleging that the evidence was insufficient to support his conviction. The district court denied the application, finding it only attacked the credibility of witnesses and sufficiency of evidence, which were already considered and rejected in his state court appeal. The district court also refused to issue a certificate of probable cause for appeal.
