Grant Lavelle Hudson is one of the FBI's Most Wanted for crimes against children. He was an amw web-exclusive case and aired on AMW radio. Below is the archive description of his case:
A House Full Of Horrors
Santa Rosa, Calif. cops tell America's Most Wanted that in the 1980s, Grant Hudson peddled fear and abuse to children in his Northern California neighborhood.
Detectives believe that Grant Hudson began molesting a a 5-year-old girl in 1982 and soon he began inviting the young girl's friends over so that he could sexually abuse them as well. For four years, the abuse continued and he began giving his young victim LSD and mescaline while he continued sexual assaults.
Cops tell AMW that Hudson used brainwashing techniques to make his victim distrust authority figures. Furthermore, police say he played perverted games to manipulate his victims into engaging in sex acts.
Detectives maintain that Hudson slept with a gun near his bed every night, and was often violent and cruel.
Hudson fled to Arizona under the name McKinney. Santa Rosa police learned that the move was a result of a San Francisco police investigation into Hudson's alleged history of abuse. An arrest warrant was issued for Hudson on 14 felony counts of Lewd and Lascivious Acts with a Child Under 14.
Cops: Prolific Molester Remains At Large
Grant Hudson escaped detection in Arizona for five years. During this time, cops say that he turned his sights onto a female family member, who he molested until she put a stop to it.
That's when police believe he started abusing another young girl. Cops later found out that during his time in Arizona, Hudson molested a local underage girl and she became pregnant.
In 1988, Hudson was stopped by police in Los Angeles for a traffic infraction. His true identity was discovered and he was arrested and sent to San Francisco to be tried for his earlier crimes.
However, by this time the victims were scattered or did not want to be involved in Hudson's prosecution. Hudson ended up pleading guilty to a misdemeanor offense of annoying a child and was ordered to register as a sex offender for the rest of his life.
But cops say Hudson never registered and he didn't stop the terror: he continued sleeping with young girls. He even took one victim on a tour of the Middle East where he posed as husband and wife with his underage victim. Any time that anyone became suspicious, Hudson would move.
Some of Hudson's victims came forward in 2003 and reported their years of victimization to authorities. Police soon interviewed the girls' childhood friends.
In April of that year, Hudson was caught on tape during a recorded phone conversation, confessing his years of abuse. He was arrested soon after and put behind bars.
During a preliminary hearing Hudson's victims testified and his case was bound over for a jury trial.
While Hudson was awaiting trial, the Supreme Court ruled unconstitutional a provision in the California Penal Code which allowed prosecutions of crimes that are very old.
Due to this ruling, a local judge dismissed many of the older molest charges against Hudson and released him on his own recognizance. That's when Hudson made a break for it and never showed for his trial.
The manhunt for Grant Lavelle Hudson continues and cops believe he may have fled the country to Guatemala.
The police and the FBI are asking for the assistance of AMW's viewers in helping to put him behind bars.
Thoughts? This case is pretty crazy and what's sad is Hudson has gotten away with allegedly terrorizing children for pretty much his entire adult life. What's even sicker is a family member is one of Hudson's alleged victims. All pedophiles are sick people but the ones who allegedly molest their only family members are on a special level of sickness. It seems Hudson can be many places nationally or internationally although it seems they thought Guatemala was most likely from Hudson's first AMW archive.
