I've spent the last few hours reading both the article and pretty much every source used, and couldn't find anything particularly noteworthy to complain about. The only two points I could conceivably raise are in the Crime & Sentencing section:

• and the belief the sentence could not get any worse. → and the belief the eventual sentence could not be worse than the terms of the plea deal.
• Hutson accepted a 30-year plea deal and was sentenced as such by judge Baker. → and was sentenced to such by judge Baker.

But these aren't enough to withhold promotion, so I've changed them myself, but feel free to rephrase if you want to.

I searched for academic works relating to both the person and the case, but couldn't find anything usable (although found lots about an unrelated Bobby Bostic... some union/labor relations lawsuits from the 50s to the 70s or some such). I'm satisfied all available/relevant information is appropriately contained within the article. Copyvio tool doesn't flag any concerns, and the only image used in the article is of a fair-use image (with an appropriately filled-out rationale) of the subject's likeness, which I think is contextually significant.
