UPDATE (9:54 am) after the jump…
Jennifer Hudson’s mother, Darnell Hudson Donerson, and her brother Jason Hudson were murdered this past Friday in their south side Chicago home. Her nephew, 7-year-old Julian King, is still missing. Officials believe Julian was last in the company of Jennifer’s brother-in-law, William Balfour. Balfour has a criminal record which includes a conviction for attempted murder for which he spent seven years in prison.
Jennifer has returned to her hometown to be with relatives. An Amber Alert for 5 foot, 135 pound Julian (Someone’s been taking his Flinstone’s vitamins!) is still in effect. Police urge anyone who has seen a white Chevy Suburban with Illinois license plate X584859 to call in.
Jennifer Hudson has offered $100,000 for help finding her young nephew. Unfortunately, a 1994 white Chevy belonging to her brother Jason has been found with a body in the trunk. Officials are not yet confirming whether it is in fact Julian.
Horrific. Our thoughts are with the Hudson family.

OMG…I can’t believe that you wrote…”Someone’s been taking his Flinstone’s vitamins!” about Jennifer’s nephew…how thoughtless.
This is kinda suspect… but not really, The Love of Money is the root of all evil and this obviously a plot to get Jennifer Hudson off of some of her bread… Cuz no one is running up into houses killing up everyone and especially not kid napping children for nothing in Chicago or anywhere else… They didn’t steal anything? and if its not the nephew in the trunk how is the uncle or whomever he is rolling around the Chi with a body in the trunk of his car! Don’t he know how to get to the Lake?
@ Buzzometer: Um, he’s a big boy for a 7-year-old. It’s not like they called him fat. I thought it was kind of cute, really.
Poor little boy. Hope he turns out ok. And, however this turns out, I hope the Hudson family is able to get closure of some sort.
My condolences to the Hudson family. The brother-in-law is obviously a mental case awaiting to errupt unfortunately it was the people who saw the one good thing in him that suffered.
It sad that it was the little boy in the back of the trunk. I thought the comment about the flinstones vitamins was cute he was tall for a seven year old and he was a cutie. i would have loved him up. But some dumb A** had to take his life and i hope the jail takes his for the things he has done and i do think it was the ex husband. signing off Ms.VA
