MIAMI (WSVN) – The trial for a Florida teenager accused of killing his stepsister aboard a Carnival cruise ship has been set.
A judge on Tuesday said the start of the trial for 16-year-old Timothy Hudson will begin on June 1 at 9 a.m.
According to police, Hudson killed stepsister Anna Kepner while aboard the cruise ship last November. Kepner’s body was found under a bed in a room that she was sharing with Hudson.
Medical examiners declared that the 18-year-old died from mechanical asphyxiation.
Hudson is being charged as an adult with murder and aggravated sexual abuse.
He has since pleaded not guilty.
