FROM TMZ, ON FRIDAY (view photos):

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.

@Whew

No the Police that the people of chi-town pay taxes to employ should be watching the streets of this communities. They have a hard job I am told and it is in part isi because of the cowards that think they are above the law. Again I say Please vote in you local election with the same strengh that you do in the presidenial election. These are the folks that maKe laws on crimes

You know, I cannot even imagine what Jennifer Hudson must be going through right now. It is so sad but goes to show the moral of her character and her mother, that they did not want to move out of the South-Side of Chi-town. It was noted that her mother wanted to stay there, despite her daughters fame and fortune. It just goes to show what beautiful souls/people she came from.

She must be sitting somewhere thinking she should had moved her family…..I just cannot even imagine….I know that I would be thinking this….but then again, this is what her mother wanted. She must have known the dangers of still living on the South Side after Jennifer’s fame and fortune…SMDH!!!!

My Sincere Prayers go out to her……DAMN!!! Her mother/brother are not going to even see her get married!!!!!

I am in tears. This is the saddest thing I have heard in a long time. Im prayin for her and her family. I know we are all crazy about the election and who’s going to win. But we gotta take time and address this crime problem in America. Everybody’s concerned about money and wall street, Who’s gonna step up and say we gotta protect our families FIRST. I rather be poor and safe then rich and scared to walk down the street. It’s prayin time family!!! and time to make these candidates address this issue.

LOL

Friday, October 24, 2008 /

This is horrible, looks like you have to walk around in your house with a gun in the holster these days. Wonder did they kidnap the child for ranson. People are just evil and demon possessed. We must pray for this child!!!! This is why people move out of the hood immediately when they get success, not sure if this is the case.

Our Father who art in heaven
Hallowed be thy name
thy kingdom come
thou will be done on earth, as it is in Heaven
give us this day our daily bread
and forgive us our debts, as we forgive our debtors
lead us not into temptation
but deliver us from evil
for thine is the kingdom, the power and the glory… forever
Amen.

God bless Jennifer Hudson’s family with strength, hope and love in this time of sadness. Please bless her family with your loving grace and spirit. Guide them, comfort them, shelter them Lord. Bless the young child that is missing.
In Jesus’ name I sincerely and truthfully pray… Amen.

It’s not just chicago, obviously crimes happen all over this country. Some you hear about and some you don’t. Nonetheless, prayers go out to J-hud and her family. This doesn’t sound like gang violence, it sounds like a domestic situation which turned violent. So sad.

121.

NOT EASILY IMPRESSED

Friday, October 24, 2008 /

They’re saying it was “domestic” so… Was it someone either (of the deceased individuals) were involved with? Where is the sister? Isn’t it her son? Or was it Jennifer’s brother’s son? I want this worked out now!

122.

@ Thatbkchick,

That’s what I was thinking. But naw its much sadder than that. If what folks say is true this is what happens when you still have connections with these no good ex-con cowardly men. DBR GARBAGE.

My prayers goes out to Jennifer. May God bring her nephew and his mother home safe.
