Each episode, we pick a year, unpack what went down, and try to make sense of how we survived it. With our friends, fellow comedians, and favorite authors. Like Mark Lamont Hill on the 80s. 84 was a wild year. I don't think there's a more important year for black people.

hi guys welcome to an episode of legally brunette i'll be your host today emily simpson with shane okay first of all before we get into the bulk of what we're going to talk about today we do have an update on a case we talked about previously so if you have not listened to this episode it is the anna keppner case which was the i'm sure you remember this case it was the young girl that was found um on the cruise on the cruise ship So Anna Kepner was 18, and she was found dead under her bed in the cabin she shared with her stepbrother during a November 2025 cruise. The death was later ruled a homicide by mechanical asphyxiation. This was... what we learned afterwards yeah um so the fbi has been investigating and th that they don't release the name because yeah but they're trying him as an adult but they don't want to they're like we're going to treat you like an adult but sometimes we're going to treat you like a minor yeah that is true that is um contradictory that they won't release names because he's a minor but they are going to try him as an adult um he this is the 16 year old stepbrother of anna anyway he was initially arrested in early of february was an again 18
She was 18, he's 16, and they were sharing a room, a cabin together on a cruise ship, and then she was found dead underneath the bed by housekeeping. He was charged in juvenile court before prosecutors sought adult charges. This was back in February of 2026, so only a couple months ago. Mm-hmm. T.H., you know, I remember finding his name originally. I think it was posted somewhere, but now I can't remember what T.H. stands for. But he has been indicted as an adult by a federal grand jury on first degree murder and aggravated sexual abuse charges in connection with her death aboard a Carnival Horizon cruise ship. which was sailing in November of 2025. Prosecutors allege he sexually assaulted and then intentionally killed her.
I would assume this is what I picked.
