On Tuesday (June 24, 2025) a DeKalb County jury found a Michigan man guilty of Sexual Battery by an Authority Figure. According to 13th Judicial District Attorney General Bryant C. Dunaway, it took the jury only 30 minutes to deliberate and return their verdict against William Ryan Hudgins.
Hudgins was originally indicted in April 2023 and the victim is his 17 year old niece.
