Description
This is a habeas corpus proceeding in which petitioner sought a reduction in the amount of bail, set at $10,000 upon presentment of indictment charging her with sexual abuse of a child and incest. After a hearing held March 4, 1981 the habeas court declined to modify the bail, and petitioner gave notice of appeal. The record was filed by our Clerk March 24, 1981 and submitted on briefs April 29, 1981. Now petitioner prays alternatively for an order releasing her on a personal bond or reducing bail to $1,000 or less. For its part, the State, consistent with its position below, points to the nature of the alleged offenses and stresses "a strong community interest in sexual related offenses... where incestuous activity is alleged." The competing contentions are better assayed when placed in context, and to that end we now turn.
