Judge swears in her twin sister as Judge. .

In Birmingham, Alabama, Shanta Owens and Shera Grant made history by taking the bench as district court judges. Not only are their professional lives identical, but their personal ones as well. They attended Alabama State University.



They're graduates of Louisiana State University’s law school. Their six-year-old girls and three-year-old sons were born four months apart. They married two months apart in 2003, and their husbands are childhood friends.

In 2008, Shanta became a district court judge, where she will remain on the bench until 2020. After serving for eight years she had the opportunity to swear in Shera, who is currently filling in the seat of a former judge.
