GRIFFIN - A grand jury could decide Thursday whether to indict a woman accused of fatally shooting her two sons in a nursing home because they suffered from Huntington&#39;s disease. <br> <br> Carol Carr, 63, of Hampton, has been in jail since the shootings June eighth at the nursing home in Griffin, 35 miles south of Atlanta. <br> <br> Spalding County Superior Court Judge Ben Miller denied bond for Carr earlier this month. He said he had ``grave concern&#39;&#39; that Carr would hurt herself or someone else if released from jail. <br> <br> Carr is charged with two counts of murder in the shooting deaths of her sons at SunBridge Care and Rehabilitation Center. <br> <br> Randy Scott, 42, and Andy Scott, 41, both suffered from Huntington&#39;s Disease, a degenerative disorder that causes excessive twitching, and eventually, dementia and death. <br> <br> Another son plans a rally for his mother Thursday.
