NEWS: HUDSON FAMILY HOLDS PRESS CONFERENCE + FBI JOIN IN SEARCH / NEIGHBORS SET UP MEMORIAL OUTSIDE HOME
Sunday, October 26, 2008

Julia Hudson eldest sister of Jennifer Hudson gave a press conference with Greg King, the biological father of Julian King at Pleasant Gift Missionary Baptist Church in Chicago on Saturday. The former couple were pleading for the safe return of their son.
Hudson’s mother, Darnell Donerson, and brother, Jason Hudson, were shot to death Friday in their home. The child, Julian King, has been missing since. Rumors circulated the internet on Friday saying that Julia was missing, but that was not the case.
Police issued an Amber Alert for Julian and asked residents to look out for a 1994 white Chevrolet Suburban with Illinois license plate X584859. Julian is described as being 4 feet, 11 inches tall and weighing 130 pounds. He was wearing a striped brown polo shirt and khaki pants when last seen, authorities said in the Amber Alert.
According to reports, suspect, William Balfour was taken into custody Friday for questioning. His mother, Michele Davis-Balfour insists that he is innocent.

Ziff Sistrunk looks over a memorial outside the home of 57-year-old Darnell Hudson Donerson, the mother of Oscar winner Jennifer Hudson, October 25, in Chicago, Illinois.
——————————–
Also, I would like to note that CL will not post detailed information of the case, because the investigation is ongoing/active. We are receiving your emails, but only want to post facts not speculations. We want to respect the Hudson family and their friends during this horrible time. Our hearts are with them.

I don’t even know how a person could deal with such tragedy. One death is bad enough but 2 plus a missing child? I just hope that the Hudson family can dig deep for strength and lean on each other through this.

I was shocked when I heard the news today. I was just thinking about J-Hud and all of her success. Every time I turn on the t.v. I see her (new engagement, new movie, new album, interviews with Queen & A. Keys). It shows how you can be on top of the world one day, but a totally different story the next.
I don’t know what to say. I have know idea what that feels like. I pray that God will comfort her and the family.

This Julia’s choice of men is in question if you ask me.
I’m praying that Julian is returned home safely, i know i wouldn’t be able to sleep not knowing where my son is. KNowing he’s somewhere crying to come back home and not knowing whats happening to him. The thought alone brings tears to my eyes.

Women, it’s important to understand it’s not cool having a “soldier” in your life to put yourself and your family in harm’s way. It ain’t cute having thugs in your life especially when you have children.
I pray to God he brings that child home safe and sound.

Jennifeer, our thoughts and prayers are with you and your family, from London , U.K. You may ask yourself ‘ Why Me?’ at such a terrible time. i pray that Julian is found safe and well. ( In Jesus Name. Amen). May God be with you- you have brought us all so much Joy, everything happens for a reason. You have to rise above this tragedy, though it must hurt really bad. Such a senseless act committed by an evil person(s) is indicative of the evil that has permeated our society. God will see you through, turn to him, you are truly loved and are an inspiration to a generation of young ladies- i have two teenagers who adore you. Don’t give up on life, you have so much to live for and your mum and brother would want you to continue to remain full of Joy. Thank you for all the love and joy you have shared through your music. much love.

@24 an @26, I feel you. He was violent and a jail bird before she met him. I bet this nut got with her around the time Jennifer was becoming famous. His thieving, criminal mind knew how to keep it on the DL until he got where he wanted. This is why people are not insane when they do these crimes, their plotting behinds know what they are doing and he knew how to get a gun when he know he wasn’t suppose to have one. Too many women get with anybody to apease others so that no one will think they can’t get a man. And bring any old thang from the street that grins at them so they can have sex and bring that thang around their kids! I don’t know one man that will tell you up front he is crazy, a child molester, murdered, stalker, etc. You have to pray when you meet someone and just ask God to uncover what is wrong with this person and look, not ignore, his clues. If people are judging you because you are single, then you need to get rid of those judges because if you are not worried about it what is their problem? Stay single, busy, and proud til the real right one comes along.

Well, either they let that guy out of jail or someone is on his myspace, because he logged on October 26th. Prior to that he hadn’t logged in since June. I just wish he’d be the “man” he “think” he is, and tell Julian’s mother where he is and face the consequences. I have to cosign with those who say we need to have higher standards. There’s nothing attractive about a thug. Reading his profile made me sick to the stomach. He has absolutely nothing going for him. Too often, we (as people) choose a mate because we don’t want to be alone. He’s on parole for some type of murder for Christ sakes. As someone who actually worked in the parole field, let me be the first one to tell you - most (not all) of the guys on parole for serious crimes like that don’t change. They’re abusive on all levels and are just waiting to snap at any moment. I can’t count the number of times I’ve had women come into the office saying they’ve been abused by their man. They’ll write a report, we’ll get a warrant for them, have them arrested, and guess who’s calling me up begging me to “please let him out” and “I want to retract my report…I love him?” You guessed it, the battered woman. We have got to do better. We need to start validating our own kids (both boys and girls) so they won’t be looking for love and acceptance in all the wrong places. This is a tragedy indeed and my thoughts and prayers will be with the family.

I agree with 24, 25 and 35 and 36! God is good, and yeah its great to have FAITH that you can apply to something. YOur sister is now famous, and sorry but what comes along with that is DISCRETION. You cant do the silly foolish things you once did before you have to have a HIGH STANDARD. Ok you didnt want to move out the “hood” but what sense does that make when your sister/child is now a high profile celebrity. So often black people think that oh thats there fame we dont want to change. INSULT to everything she is working for and living for. NO one saying change your friends or the way you were, but now you have got to step it up a notch. They should have moved, bottom line! I dont mean to sound so insensitive, but we have got to do better and stop making desperate decisions. He was a digusting looking pervert, and she couldnt see through that.

Whoever did this needs to rot in hell, they need to put him on an electric chair. I dont usually endorse capital punishment, but when i hear of situations like this it makes me realize that there are some sick fuckers out there who need to be burned in hell.
I hate how people glamorize thugs, women we dont need stupid thugs like William Balfont (whatever the alleged murderers name is) Anyway I pray to GOD ALMIGHTY for the safe return of Julian King!!! No child should suffer like that, the boy has lost his grandma and his uncle, God have mercy on that family.
And the mother of William should be so fucking ashamed of herself!!! Your son is a felon, a criminal, and you have the friggin audacity to defend him? What a MAD WOMAN! She raised the devil and should be ashamed of herself!!!
Let this be a lesson to people out there, be careful who you let into your life whether it be friends or partners, because there are some maniacs out there and they act like their good people but there not!

NO DO NOT GO TO CNN For details. I am actually angry and upset with CNN and hot damned Nancy Grace’s lilly white azz!!! Where the hell is her azz when you need her to report about missing black/mexican or other ethnic children? In fact, we should boycott CNN Nancy Grace and tell them to take her tired ol white azz off if she can’t give coverage equally!!!!
I am sorry,I am in no way trying to take away from the tragedy that has occurred to Jennifer Hudson….it’s just that CNN can and should do better at a time like this!!!!!!
I hope and pray to the Lord that the baby is ok? Just imagine if Jennifer’s sister was not working, they would had killed her sister too and whole family would be gone…..I just do not understand the world my CL peeps. I cannot imagine what Jennifer must be thinking and feeling….all the fame, money and fortune in the world can’t bring her momma or brother back…..DAMN!!! They won’t get to see her rise on the charts this year, her movie premiere….and her wedding!!!!!May the Lord hold and keep them strong!!!
BUT STILL WRITE CNN ABOUT NANCY GRACE’S AZZ!!!! THAT’S TRUTH YALL!!

I truly agree with #24,25,35 and 36. Why do women even go for those type of men? Maybe because society keeps trying to portray this image of dating bad boys and thugs is the way to go. Nobody ever tells the naive women who falls for this crap, there are serious or even fatal consequences. LEAVE THEM N***AS ALONE!!! Stop being stupid! They werent sh*t before you met them, when you met them and after you met them. Stop thinking you can change these n***as because YOU CANT.
It truly is heartbreaking to see Jennifer go through something like this. I feel even more terrible that the poor boy wasnt even found yet. I feel bad for Julia but you see this is what happens when you have pathetic choices in men. Damn shame.

My people, we need to stop posting our lives on Damned MySpace!!! I am sorry go in a private chat room and talk to your people there. I am so tired of MySpace people who sit there and post their whole damned life on the damned internet!!!! I do not mean to sound crass or rude…,but Jennifer Hudson’s sister needs to not be on MySpace right now, and people in general need to not put their personal business and stuff on that site. My God, if people were using MySpace to vet nicca’s like this, she would had or should had known better than to get caught up with a fool like this. Otherwise, MySpace is a web portal for fun…not to be posting scripts for Lifetime TV or EBT channel!!!!
Personally, I think the sister knows more than what she is letting on. Apparently, this started over a 2003 car that she called the police on him about taking her car….SMDH!!

Thanks CL for just posting just the facts. The mainstream media are so quick to launch their own investigation. The American people are eager for news, however, we have no need for 14 media outlets scrambling to tell the same damn story. In fact, murder cases involving famous people are just as private as your everyday folk cases. This story is outright horrible and frankly we should respect their privacy and let law enforcement do their job.

SHE MUST FEEL REALLY BAD KNOWING THAT ALL OF THIS HAPPENED FROM A STUPID ASS MISTAKE SHE MADE WITH MARRYING A THUG. SHE SHOULD HAVE KNOWN BETTER THAN THIS. FROM A MISTAKE SHE MADE, HER FAMILY ENDS UP MURDERED BY SOME NO GOOD ASS BLACK UGLY STANKIN MUTHA FUCKA!! I DON’T CARE IF YOU ARE 500 POUNDS AND EXTREMELY HORNY AND LONELY, IT AIN’T WORTH IT TO GET SOME JAIL BIRD TO FUCK ON YOU AND THEN TURN AROUND AND STEAL FROM YOU AND KILL YOUR FAMILY. BLACK WOMEN NEED TO MAKE BETTER CHOICES WHEN PICKING MEN. BLACK MEN NEED TO DO THE SAME AS WELL. OUR ACTIONS CAN CAUSE OTHERS AROUND US TO HURT OR EVEN DIE BECAUSE WE AREN’T SMART ENOUGH TO MAKE WISE CHOICES. FUCK, I’M REALLY PISSED RIGHT NOW AND I NEED TO TAKE MY MIND OFF OF THIS TRAGIC STORY.

Whoever did this has a heart. The child must have been a witness, so instead of killing Julian they kidnapped him. I feel he is alive. If the person was ruthless they’d kill the child on the spot. I pray they find him alive and well and unharmed. This person isn’t that cruel i’m assuming.

Black women need to stay way from these thugs. Please. Black women we have to build up our self-esteem and demand better. I feel sorry for this family but they should really be a cautionary tale for our community.
When the family foundation is broken, people find a way to come in a destroy it. The fact that that child’s father did not live with his child left that child vulnerable to this kind of violence.

I stopped watching Nancy Grace for that same reason you stated, after I heard about Jennifer’s nephew I turned it their to see if she was covering it and nope she wasn’t.
On a side note: Nancy is on Headline News and I think CL wanted people to actually go to CNN (there two different stations). They are sister stations.

Please people, stop dating jailbirds and criminals, and stop taking chances putting them and bringing them around your kids…..there is a reason the system locked their ass up in the first place.
Sorry if this was inappropriate. But if the police suspicions are right, i would love to prevent this type of thing in the future. Leave criminals where you find them…don’t take them home, take them into your heart, bring them around your family, fall in love with them, let them baby sit your kids while you’re at work, pick your kids up, or be a stepparent to your children. It’s enough to take a chance with your life, but in doing so, you risk your whole familys’ life. Criminals are criminals, and parole means they served enough time that the system let them out and try to supervise them in the community; it does not mean they are to be trusted. Most of the time, the prisons are so full, they have the let the lesser of the evils out after serving so much time. It don’t make that person any less dangerous to society, but that’s another argument for another day.
It’s happening all too often that women are bringing criminals around their children and families, and i just felt it needed to be mentioned. So just sayin…..
Sorry again if this was inappropriate.
My heart goes out to the victims.

I would be crazy as hell, not knowing where my child is, are they living or not, are they eating or not, where are they sleeping if at all……but nope this isn’t the case with this mom. Looks like she even took the time to go get her hair done! Something is amidst….this picture is a bit off….

When I heard the news about J. Hud’s fam, I was sick to the stomach. My prayers go out to her and her fam and I hope they find her nephew.
I grew up in the neighborhood where they were killed its rough over there and as of now Chicago has the highest murder rate in the country. It’s sad. Many children were murdered here this year. The government really needs to clean up the streets and stop spending all the money in Iraq an Iran. Because tax paying citizens are damn near scared to death do to the amount of crime that occurs on the average urban city street.

You guys know that if Jennifer Hudson was not famous, this news story would have never circulated nationally? Oh sure, we always have to look for the white kid that turns up missing after the father kills the mother and family. But what about blacks in this country who go missing everyday and never get an Amber Alert?

I would have said, okay Mom’s you can stay, but you live in the hood
and the haters are out there. Even so called friends will become
haters because everybody that grins is not really happy for you. The
kind of haters that will rob you and/or hurt you for what you got or
what they think you have. People need to get over this “the hood is
your friend” crap. Tupac even said you can’t stay even though you
“love” the hood. I believe this nut may not have gotten to
California to do this because “Mr. Thug Life” don’t have a job!!!!!
He stole and sold the car with his criminal minded behind. He looks
nasty and how could she let him put those crack head looking lips on
her! Yuck! I would have at least demanded Mom to have security
posted at the home on a regular basis, especially after her mom had
to kick the nut out of the house. Funny how you can go get a gun you
are not suppose to have because you are on probation but can’t get a
job or go back to school for 4 weeks to get a certificate to get a
job like mechanic or something. All this thinking and plotting going
on, its obvious your nut brains works!!! I can’t stand a
non-working, criminal minded, nasty talking, always trying to get something for
free, jealous, excuse making, ghetto buger!! Women, that 5 sec tickle isn’t worth all that!

#59 i totally agree with you. i have always believed that when the family is broken down, mainly when dad is long gone, these kids become victims to outsiders. not just in the home. the school systems as well. when all they see is mom or another single woman raising a child why respect her?? or even the kids?? the protector of the family is gone. this is why we have young black women dating men like balfour. women looking for a man to protect them. all i have to say is black men stay in your child’s life. no matter what happens to you and mom. make you presence known not just on weekends and holidays. i hope her son is found safe and sound.

You know, I was saying to myself during this whole CAYLEE incident that Nancy Grace has become the Caylee show. Don’t get me wrong. I am saddened when I hear about ANY missing child especially when I have sons of my own but the scales are unbalanced! Nancy Grace talks about how precious that Caylee baby is and the coverage reminded me of the Jean Benet Ramsey case that would NEVER go away. But here we have a little Black boy who is connected to a well loved, high profile celebrity and he STILL does not get the coverage on Nancy Grace like little Caylee. They could have been using that show as an investigative format just as they did with Caylee but when I turned that show on . . . next to no coverage and this little boy just disappeared so his chances of survival are greater so that show should have been plastering his case all weekend! I was furious before this case with Hudson even came up whenever I thought about how little white kids are broadcasted like they are missing diamonds and Black children are murdered and are missing all the time and I cannot recall ours getting the coverage that some of these white kids get. I hate to sound like I am playing a race card because they are all precious and deserve to be highlighted and of course I do not expect all to have the same airtime but come on! This is too obvious! Of course this tragedy will be covered on CNN due to Hudson’s status but I am just saying that I feel that even with celebrity status our babies are not valued in the media as white babies. Nothing new . . just an observation. I feel for the loss of this little boy and having sons myself cannot imagine the pain that the Hudson family must be going through right now.

I HOPE THAT MURDERED GET THE DEATH PENALTY.
I’M OFFICIAL OVER JULIA’S FAT ASS, CAUSE THE REALITY IS, WHETHER PEOPLE ARE SKIPPING AROUND IT, OR FAILING TO SAY IT PERIOD, HER FAT ASS IS THE CAUSE OF THIS SHIT WITH HER POOR CHOICES. THAT BABY HAD NO SAY IN WHO SHE BRINGS INTO THEIR LIVES, SHE CHOSE FOR HIM, JUST LIKE SHE ALSO MADE A POOR DECISION THAT AFFECTED THE REST OF HER FAMILY’S LIFE. WE AREN’T DOING HER ANY FAVORS BY TRYING TO SAY IT’S NOT HER FAULT. IT’S HER FAULT, AND HOPEFULLY SHE MAKES BETTER DECISION IN WHATEVER FUTURE SHE HAS.

What! It’s very weird that a mother whose son has gone missing, whose mom and brother has been brutually murdered, would take the time to get her hair done! That’s very odd, and is outside the scope of a grieving person. Why would i think about my hair one second if my child might have been murdered, if my child is missing, if my child might be hungry, if he’s scared and crying, if he’s in pain!? Sorry but that’s odd and very cold of her.
And no, that’s not a wig, it’s a quick weave, and it looks freshly done for the cameras.

If you aren’t capable of saying anything sincere at a time like this please do us all a favor and kill yourself. How dare you say this was done to boost record sales. What kind of person are you? Jennifer is a God fearing woman. One of my fondest memories of her on tv is when she was on Oprah. She said that when she auditioned for the role of Effie the first thing she did was go to the church in prayer. Don’t worry Jen we are all praying for you and we will fill heaven with our cries for justice and in the end God will deliver.

I don’t understand why people keep making this about the “hood”. This could have happened anywhere and most likely would have. It has nothing to do with the neighbourhood they live in. This was done by a family member. It was an inside job. In all fairness to the citizens of SS Chicago,they seem very supportive and the Hudson’s (especially the mother)was well liked.

i’m finding it very hard to come to terms with this. i’m very sad and my heart is very heavy.
I just want to address those talking about Julia hudson’s hair.
EVERYBODY LISTEN UP
i have been constantly on julia’s myspace sending comments and condolences e.t.c
On her page in one of those Myspace quiz’s her date of birth says OCTOBER 23RD 1977. Meaning its not all that oddthat her hair looks done seeing as it was just her birthday the day before this tragedy.
ALSO i was looking at pictures (i think this time on jennifer’s myspace) of Julian wearing what he was seen wearing at a dinner (i believe celebrating his mother’s birthday. In one of the pictures is Julia in the background and her looked EXACTLY the same.
Please people isn’t this whole tragedy enough to show just what a terrible world we live in. PLEASE have the decency and respect to not JUDGE a woman who has lost her mother,brother and possibly her son in the space of weekend.
My thoughts right now are with the Hudson family. i am very deeply saddened. I can’t even say i’ve taken it all in because if i do i think my heart will break.
Lord please give the family strength.

This is tough news to swallow. First the death of Jennifer and Julia’s mother and brother. Then the baby Julian ends up missing and now may be feared dead. The family is to confirm the body this afternoon at the medical examiners office. That’s a nightmare in itself. I’m hoping the child is not him, but then I wish that was no one’s child just left behind in a vehicle like a bag of groceries or something. The whole ordeal is a tragedy and is extraordinarily sad. The loss of three precious lives over pure foolishness!!!
My unceasing prayers goes out to the Hudson family and the father of little Julian King. My heart is really aching on this one.

All you have to do is pray for the family and beg for the Lord to comfort them…if you don’t have anything nice to say, then don’t say it at all,,,now is not the time..omg you are just as worse as the killers…

I just saw on the news that it has been confirmed that the body found in the SUV is that of Julian. This is just disturbing and unbelievable! I cannot even imagine the grief that the Hudson family is going through. I know their faith will get them through this tragic time.
Angell Patterson, this has nothing to do with Jennifer. Just because she became famous, she didn’t have to move her family out of that neighborhood. They wanted to be there. It was their home! Unfortunately, crime is going to happen whether you live in a good or bad neighborhood. It just shouldn’t happen period and especially to people who haven’t done anything but good for their community. And more so, to a child that hasn’t even lived their life yet.

This poor, poor, innocent baby. My heartfelt condolences to the Hudson family. I can’t imagine the pain and grief they are experiencing at this time.
This is a lesson - please be mindful of the men you bring around your children. If you know someone has a violent, criminal past and you choose to date them, go ahead, but leave your dang kids and your family out of it UNLESS YOU KNOW THAT PERSON HAS BEEN REHABILITATED. I don’t care if people get mad at my post or not. I don’t know if William is guilty, although it looks hella suspicious since it was said that he threatened to kill Julia’s family, but she didn’t take him seriously. I’m not hear to pass judgment on Julia, but if you know someone is of questionable character, use the brain God gave you and make better choices. Too many women loving the thugs.
This isn’t about the hood? People get your head out the sand. Yes, people in suburbs get shot and killed too, but let’s face it, the hood is a dangerous place. Shall we say the hood has a higher violent crime/drug rate. Black on black crime is a problem in our communities. I don’t understand why black people are in denial.
