11/11/2015 – OKC, OK — An admitted human trafficker, whom Okla. County DA David Prater previously gave a ‘get out of jail free card’, has had his probation revoked after trying to kill police officers.
JohnTV has several times reported on the despicable pile of human flesh that is 24-year-old Joshua Ray Hudson.
The first time JohnTV covered Hudson was back in May of 2013 after we were the first to report on his arrest for pimping out a pregnant 16-year-old at the Broadway Suites in Edmond.
The second time was in June of 2013 after Hudson was formally charged in Oklahoma County with felony human trafficking (link to charges).
According to court records, undercover Oklahoma City Vice officers and agents with the Oklahoma Bureau of Narcotics Human Trafficking Unit were following up on a report of a pregnant 16-year old female who appeared in advertisements for sex on Backpage.com.
An undercover officer met-up with the teen victim and gave her the $140 she requested for vaginal and oral sex. The teen was then taken into protective custody. Hudson was located nearby and also taken into custody.
After being arrested and mirandized, Hudson told police he posted the ads of the teen on the Internet, suggested what price she should charge and collected money paid to her for sex.
JohnTV again reported on Hudson in Aug. of 2013 after he pleaded guilty to the human trafficking charge. You can read Hudson’s own admission on court documents below…
At sentencing JohnTV learned how little concern Oklahoma County District Attorney David Prater has for Oklahoma’s victimized youth when his office agreed to allow Hudson to rescind his guilty plea for human trafficking and instead plead guilty to computer crimes. Based on the amended plea, Hudson was only sentenced to a deferred probation – no official conviction, no criminal record and no justice for Hudson’s young victim (JohnTV article).
DA Prater commented on Hudson’s extremely light sentence in a June 2015 article for the Oklahoman newspaper. You can read DA Prater’s quote below…

*NOTE: DA Prater was caught in an obvious lie in the above quote. Hudson had already pleaded guilty to human trafficking so how could DA Prater claim he had a stronger case for the computer crimes.
Within months of Hudson’s guilty plea and slap on the wrist sentence, Hudson was again arrested. This time Hudson was being chased by police in Seminole County when he began firing shots at them from his vehicle in an attempt to kill pursing officers. When finally taken into custody, after a 16-hour manhunt, Hudson was found in the company of a 15-year-old female who was only wearing a bikini (JohnTV article).
This past Monday the Oklahoma County DA’s office did what it should have done originally and sentenced Hudson to prison – revoking the hug-a-thug probation he was previously sentenced to.
According to court records, Hudson was sentenced to just five-years in prison for violating the terms of his probation.
Its important to note that a five-year term is actually less than the eight years of probation Hudson was originally sentenced to – meaning his probation was not revoked in full and once again Oklahoma County DA David Prater gave this turd a break.
Hudson is still facing 13 serious criminal charges in Seminole County.
JohnTV will continue to follow this case.
