APPLETON, WI (WTAQ-WLUK) — A judge said Thursday the crime scene photos provided to convicted Kenneth Hudson are the only versions of the images he is going to get.
Hudson is serving a life prison term for the June 25, 2000, murder of Shanna Van Dyn Hoven, 19, while she was jogging in a Kaukauna park. Since sentencing, Hudson has filed more than a dozen appeals and motions — usually focusing on claims he was framed — and all have failed.
Last month, the judge ordered the Outagamie County sheriff’s department to produce images from a strip of negatives which Hudson said had not been previously provided. Hudson complained about the quality of those images.
Hudson said he believes the photos will show there’s no knife on the floor of his truck – as prosecutors claimed – but the images aren’t of sufficient quality.
