SDNY COURTHOUSE,
March 17 – Tracii Show Hutsona
was charged with wire fraud
and identity theft while
billing herself a big-wig
booking "models, musicians and
dancers in
Japan."
On January 13, 2022 U.S.
District Court for the
Southern District of New York
Judge Jesse M. Furman held a
conference. Inner City Press
covered it.
Hutsona is
out on $50,000 bond, secured
by $15,000 cash. The complaint
says, "it appears that Hudsona
stole money set aside for the
education of Victim-1's
children to fund her own
luxury lifestyle." Victim-1
was Joumana Kidd, the ex-wife
of the NBA's Jason Kidd.
On February 28,
2023 after a guilty plea,
Show-Hutsona was up for
sentencing before Judge
Furman. Inner City Press was
there.
The guideline was
41-51 months, and Judge Furman
went to the top, 51 months.
The defendant was previously
convicted, and while on bond
in this case was on video
smoking pot in Puerto Rico.
She has two restaurants, in
San Diego and Arizona; her
lawyer said she can't be
working all the time.
Joumana Kidd's
lawyer spoke, but did not ask
for a hearing on their request
for $1.7 million. So there is
$1,148,759.28 in restitution,
and a fine of $10,000.
Hutsona was to
turn herself in on April 13.
But based on a letter filed ex
parte - not yet in the docket
- Judge Furman scheduled a
bail hearing for March 20.
Hudsona's CJA lawyer replied
that she will turn herself in
to BOP in Arizona on March 20.
The hearing was canceled; we
await the letter being made
public as it must be. Watch
this site.
The case is US v.
Hutsona, 21-cr-299 (Furman)
