CRUISE SHIP GIRL, ANNA KEPNER, DAD: I FOUND HER COLD, NAKED BODY

A federal grand jury issues a superseding indictment against Anna Kepner's stepbrother and alleged killer, Timothy Hudson, adding a charge of sexual assault alongside premeditated murder. Despite the brutal nature of the crime, Hudson remains free on pre-trial release under GPS monitoring at an uncle's home. Anna's father says his grief is taking a toll, emotions running high after accepting Anna's high school diploma on her behalf. Chris Kepner says he will not attend his stepson's trial unless he must, unable to think about the cruise cabin where he pulled his daughter's naked body from under a bunk bed. Nancy and an expert panel dissect shocking allegations of missed warning signs, including prior alerts from an ex-boyfriend about the Hudson's obsessive behavior and reports that Anna’s biological brother was locked out of the cabin after hearing screams. As the defense secures a trial delay from June to September, a critical bond hearing looms at the end of May.
