Thomas Hudson alleged in custody filings that his ex-wife Shauntel took their children on the Carnival Horizon without his consent. He alleged she was responsible for their supervision and that the living arrangements were inappropriate. Shauntel testified under oath that the three teenagers chose to share a cabin — she called them “like the Three Amigos.” She also confirmed Timothy was on ADHD and insomnia medication and hadn’t taken the insomnia meds for two nights on the cruise, including the night before Anna Kepner’s body was found.
That same woman just filed a child support petition against Thomas. She says he owes her back payments and that the court should order him to pay more going forward. Timothy has been locked up since mid-June, facing first-degree murder charges as an adult in his stepsister’s death. The trial date is November 2. A plea agreement must happen by October 23 or it goes to a jury.
The original support order covered three kids at $2,129 a month. One aged out. Timothy went to federal detention. The number is now $1,092 for a single child. Timothy hasn’t lived under Shauntel’s roof in nearly a year. Thomas had already gone to court before the cruise, accusing Shauntel of keeping the kids from him. His lawyer asked for 140 days of make-up custody exchanges — that’s how many Shauntel had allegedly blocked.
Anna’s ex-boyfriend stated publicly that the stepbrother had climbed on top of Anna during a FaceTime call. Timothy’s own step-grandmother called the cabin arrangement “a recipe for disaster.” The person demanding more child support is the same person whose decisions allegedly put those kids in that cabin.
