Jennifer Hudson’s Loss

The seven year old nephew of Oscar winning actress Jennifer Hudson is still missing. Julian Hudson has been missing since Friday when his mother, Julia Hudson returned home to find both her mother and brother shot dead in the family’s home on the Southside of Chicago.

One man has been arrested in conjunction with the killings, William Balfour and he is still in police custody although it is not known if he has been charged with the murders of Darnell Donnerson and Jason Hudson.

Balfour is married to Julia Hudson and it has been reported that the couple recently had a heated argument after Balfour, a convicted criminal, sold a car belonging to his wife without her permission.

The police and the child’s mother have appealed for anyone who knows anything about the whereabouts of Julian to come forward. Jennifer Hudson returned home to Chicago this weekend to identify the bodies of her mother and brother.
