Stepbrother Detained in Federal Cruise Ship Murder Case
The stepbrother accused of killing 18-year-old Anna Kepner aboard a Carnival cruise ship, Timothy Hudson, has been ordered into federal custody pending trial. After months of legal disputes, a federal judge mandated Hudson’s detention, and he has been taken into custody by U.S. Marshals. This development means Hudson will remain incarcerated as the high-profile federal murder case, which is being prosecuted in federal court due to the incident occurring in international waters, progresses towards trial.
