Meet Linda Kingsberg-Hudson, wife of actor Ernie Hudson. Ernie met his wife, Linda Kingsberg, a former flight attendant, when he was starring in a Minneapolis production of The Great White Hope. Ernie said he was reluctant to marry Linda, partly because Linda is white and he was nervous about their prospects as an interracial couple. Ernie says, “I knew there would be problems,” and he was right. Realtors in the area where they bought their home in the 1980′s were reluctant to show them properties. “And people told us not to have children, because the children would be confused,” says Linda.

Disregarding such advice, Ernie and Linda married in 1985. The couple has two children together, sons Andrew and Ross. Also, Ernie has two sons from his first marriage; Ernest Jr. and and Rocky.

Ernest Hudson has starred in over 80 movies. He is well known for his roles as Winston Zeddemore in the Ghostbusters film series, Warden Leo Glynn on HBO’s Oz and Sergeant Albrecht in the cult movie The Crow.

A police officer arrested a man after he allegedly pinched her backside as she waited in a checkout line at a South Dallas discount store.

Dallas police Sgt. Marcia Trejo said she was in full uniform and shopping for Christmas gifts for underprivileged children when she was assaulted at the store, Fallas Paredes.

“I could not believe it,” said Trejo, a 27-year Dallas police veteran. “I was in shock. I immediately turned around and asked, ‘Who pinched me?’ and he started laughing, as if it was funny.”

But Trejo said she was far from amused.

“I asked him why he would do something like that to a officer — or any woman at that point — and he just said he felt that he could,” she said.

So Trejo did what she could. She called for backup and arrested the man, Delmontco Glossen, on suspicion of misdemeanor assault.

Glossen was also wanted on outstanding warrants by the Dallas Sheriff’s Office.

“I felt violated, that someone touched me that had no business touching me,” Trejo said. “He assaulted me; it was an assault.”

Trejo said she hopes a trip to jail will teach Glossen a lesson. And she said she hopes all women can learn something from her experience.

“It is indeed a crime for someone to grab you in any form or fashion, let alone for someone to grab a private part,” she said.

Glossen has bonded out of the Dallas County Jail.
