Anna Kepner Cruise Ship Murder: Stepbrother's Federal Charges Just Changed Everything

Описание: Three months after eighteen-year-old Anna Kepner's death was ruled a homicide aboard the Carnival Horizon cruise ship, her sixteen-year-old stepbrother appeared at Miami's James Lawrence King Federal Justice Centre facing multiple federal charges. According to exclusive Daily Mail reporting, the teenager arrived flanked by his biological father Thomas Hudson for a closed-door hearing on at least two charges. Anna's father Christopher Kepner told the Daily Mail he was "unable to confirm or deny" that the charges include murder and rape — a statement that directly contradicts preliminary November findings from ABC News indicating no signs of sexual assault.
Nearly everything the public knows about this cruise ship homicide emerged not from the FBI, which maintained complete silence for ninety days, but from a custody dispute between the suspect's divorced parents. Those court filings revealed text messages showing the parents focused on damage control within hours of Anna's body being found hidden under a bed in the cabin, discussions about keeping things quiet, and the suspect's claim that he couldn't remember anything from the night Anna died. Behavioral evidence including allegations of obsession, prior physical incidents in the home, and skipped medication on the cruise have taken on new weight in light of the potential charges.
Anna's family has publicly accused the suspect's father of interfering with the investigation. Her grandmother announced the surrender on Facebook. Her uncle posted about the heartbreak of watching a suspect walk free for months. The hearing was sealed, but prosecutors reportedly intend to seek adult charges. If the transfer is granted, the sealed records open and the public finally learns what the FBI spent three months building in silence.
