3 Relatives Face Drug-Dealing Charges From Joliet Police

JOLIET, IL — The Will County State's Attorney's Office of Jim Glasgow has charged three Joliet relatives with possessing and selling cocaine on several occasions this year.

Following a Joliet police investigation, Amin Hudson, 35, was charged Wednesday with three counts of manufacturing cocaine and four counts of possession of cocaine. Hudson was involved in making cocaine deals on Sept. 10, Sept. 15 and Sept. 22, according to his criminal complaint.

Robert Hudson, who turns 64 next week, was charged with one count of manufacturing cocaine and one count of possession of cocaine. Robert Hudson was involved in selling cocaine on April 7, according to prosecutors.

A third relative, Denise Hudson, 59, was charged with two counts of manufacturing cocaine and two counts of possession of cocaine. Her complaint states that Denise Hudson was involved in selling cocaine on Sept. 8 and Sept. 9.

As of Wednesday afternoon, none of the three codefendants had been booked into the Will County Jail. All three Hudsons lived at a house in the 500 block of Dover Street, court records show.

Four years ago, Joliet Patch wrote a story about the death of Amin Hudson's pitball named Fatboy. The 5-year-old dog was found hanging from a fence on December 30, 2017, and the case caught the attention of the office of Will County State's Attorney James Glasgow.

One of Glasgow's assistant state's attorneys filed a petition at the Will County Courthouse asking that Amin Hudson forfeit ownership of his two other pit bulls. The disturbing incident surrounding the death of Fatboy occurred in Hudson's yard on Dover Street.
