Powder Springs Man Charged in Kidnapping, Home Invasion

The incident occurred last August at the Woodcrest Apartments.

A convicted felon from Powder Springs already in custody at the Fulton County Jail faces new charges in connection with a violent home invasion last August in Marietta.

The new charges against Terrance Jamon Session include four counts of false imprisonment, four counts of aggravated assault, one count of kidnapping and one count of possession of a firearm by a convicted felon, according to a Cobb County criminal warrant.

Last Aug. 13, Session allegedly went to the Woodcrest Apartments on Sandtown Road, forced his way inside two units at gunpoint and demanded money and property from the victims, a Marietta police officer wrote in a warrant.

"During the incident, said accused did also fire a round from the handgun into the door of one of the apartments," the officer wrote.

Because of a June 2010 conviction in Louisiana, Session is not allowed to have weapons. But he allegedly forced one man from his apartment to another unit at gunpoint, according to the Cobb County criminal warrant. At that unit, he allegedly ordered the man and three other people to get on ground and give him money.
