Oscar-winning actress Jennifer Hudson’s mother and brother were found shot to death inside a home on Friday. According to reports, her nephew and sister are missing….

Police have confirmed Hudson’s mother, Darnell Hudson Donerson, is one of the deceased. The other victim has been identified as Jennifer Hudson’s brother Jason Hudson.

A search is under way for a young boy who is missing from the home. A child, possibly Jennifer Hudson’s 7-year-old nephew, Julian King, is missing, according to sources. Police are searching for an SUV that was seen in the area, a 1994 white Suburban, Illinois license plate number X584859. [ read more + video ]


FROM TMZ, ON FRIDAY (view photos):

UPDATE 7:35 PM ET: Police are looking for William Balfour, who they claim could be with the missing 7-year-old. According to records, Balfour listed Hudson’s mother’s address as a place of residence within the last year. According to the Illinois Department of Corrections website, Balfour is currently on parole after serving jail time for attempted murder.

UPDATE 8:35 PM ET: Lost in all this is Jennifer’s sister Julia, mother of the missing 7-year-old. We’re told she works as a bus driver in Chicago. Her employer told us she worked her shift today. She hasn’t been seen since.

UPDATE 11:26 PM ET: The suspect, William Balfour, has been taken into custody. Hudson’s newphew, 7-year-old Julian King is still missing. Balfour is refusing to cooperate with cops or supply info.

This is horrible news. We here are Concrete Loop extend our condolences to Jennifer Hudson and her family at this tragic time.

Oh no, not her mom! Your world comes to an end when you lose your mom. This is horrible! The news is reporting it to be a domestic situation, which means it may have been a family member who killed them. Horrible!

This is a time when we realize that celebrities are just as mortal as we are. Life is short no matter if your life consists of walking red carpets or cleaning carpets. I can’t even imagine what she is feeling and is praying for her and her family. God be with them.

—-I guess it’s true…”to those who much is given, much is required”. Famous people
—-have it hard!

—-Lord, have mercy on Jennifer and her family!

Someone just told me this was on the news and I happened to be online and wanted to see if it was really true. I am definitely in shock…I was just reading Jen’s story in JET magazine. God bless her and the family during this difficult time. I can’t even fathom what she’s going through right now. I would be out of my mind! It’s just a damn shame how people take the lives of others without a care in the world.

RIP Darnell and Jason

Glad you posted CL. RIP! Hope they find the child. They need to question the sister

For dude to take the nephew..it could be the baby daddy.. He knew to steal her sister’s car and hasnt killed the child? True I think the mom/bro were at the wrong place/time… You got Lyfe Jennings going crazy over baby mama stuff. This is someone close to them

Omg
Now this is when we need to march on something. Let me know if we are walking the streets of this neigborhood and shuting down traffic looking for these People. I will take off work for that serious. This is not about the right to bear arms ( trust I register and ready) it about the right to life. This is why we have the death penalty in Texas and violent crimes are down here. This pisses me off. There are people who think taht they are so important that they can just take a like. People know who did this, but because of some silly ass street code folks arent going to say. Why do we let these thugs run our communities. All of you all should be mad.

@Meat

sweety this has nothing to do with Obama or econmics. Crime in Chi-town was bad before he got , worst while he was there, and wont get no better when he’s gone. This is about cowards who rely on the fear of decent people to claim things that dont belong to them. that’s why I send the NRA a check every year and I write Kay bailey Hutchinsonin support of everytime people start crying about how tough the laws are in Texas.

God please give the people of this community the back bone need to come forward and expose these cowards for the animals they are. In Jesus name
