Well, let me tell ya about this fella, Davide Hudson, down there in Beckley, West Virginia. Now, he ain’t a name folks around these parts forget easy, that’s for sure. Folks been talkin’ about him ever since that awful thing happened back in 2018. It was July 9th, if I remember right, early mornin’ hours. They say Davide Hudson, along with a few others, done kidnapped a woman named Amber Meadows and her friends. They held them folks up at a motel there on Harper Road. It was a mess, a real big mess.
Now, the story goes that these folks, Amber and her friends, got caught up in a terrible ordeal. They weren’t just held hostage neither, no sir. They say they were tormented by this man and his crew. Ain’t no one deserves that kind of trouble, not a single soul. But it didn’t stop there. What happened next is somethin’ that’ll give ya chills, I reckon. They say that Davide Hudson shot Amber right in the head, just like that. The poor girl didn’t stand a chance. It was a cruel and senseless act that shocked the whole town.
After all that happened, the police done their job, and they caught up with ol’ Davide Hudson. He was arrested and charged with all kinds of things—kidnapping, murder, and lord knows what else. Now, I don’t know about you, but a lot of folks around here just couldn’t believe it. They wanted answers, wanted to know why something like this could happen in their peaceful little town.
They say he pled innocent, tried to say he didn’t do it, but that didn’t hold water for long. When they put him in front of that jury, the truth came out quick. On February 2, not too long ago, they found him guilty. Six charges he was convicted of, and one of them was first-degree murder. Folks ain’t been the same since. They say justice was served, but I reckon that don’t bring Amber back, does it?
Let me tell you, Beckley’s a small place. People know each other, and when something like this happens, it shakes the whole town. They say it’s a tragedy that’ll never be forgotten. The families, the friends, the folks that knew Amber—well, they’re still tryin’ to make sense of it all. How could something like that happen to a young woman, someone just tryin’ to live her life?
The case wasn’t easy on anyone, but it had to be done. Justice had to take its course, and now, Davide Hudson faces his consequences. What comes next, I don’t know. Some folks say he’ll be in prison for the rest of his life, others think he’ll get a chance for parole someday. I guess time’ll tell. But one thing’s for sure—there ain’t no way to take back what happened that day in Beckley.
For now, folks around here are just tryin’ to move on. But they won’t forget Amber Meadows. Her story’s stuck with them, just like it’ll stick with anyone who heard it. That poor girl didn’t deserve that fate. She was taken too soon, and it’s a damn shame.
