Jennifer Hudsons Mom and brother shot

[chnst 6]

Jennifer Hudson's mother and brother died of fatal gunshot wounds Friday, police have confirmed to MTV News.

A Chicago police representative said the singer's mother, Darnell Hudson Donerson, and older brother, Jason, were killed. Donerson was 57 years old; Jason was 29.

Officers received a call shortly before 3 p.m. Friday (October 24), the representative said, and upon arriving at the residence, 7019 South Yale Avenue, found the two victims. The incident has been declared a double homicide; police emphasized that this may be a domestic situation.

Julian King, Hudson's young nephew, who had been living at the residence, has been reported missing. Chicago police confirmed to MTV News that the child may be in the company of identified suspect William Balfour, an African-American male in his late 20s, who is considered armed and dangerous. King may be wearing khaki pants and a tan polo shirt with the number 5 on it, according to ABC News; the Chicago Tribune reported that he is 5 feet tall, weighs 135 pounds and has brown eyes and black hair.

Balfour had been living at the residence, police said, and may have had a romantic relationship with Hudson's sister Julia, as vehicles are co-registered to both of them. Police said Balfour is believed to be driving either a white Chevrolet Suburban, 1994 model, with the license plate X584859, or a green Chrysler Concord, with the license plate 332K823.

Area 2 Deputy Chief Joseph Patterson told ABC news that neighbors reported hearing shots between 8 and 9 a.m. Friday. Patterson said a family member found the body of Donerson in the living room Friday afternoon and left the house to call police. When authorities arrived, they found Jason Hudson in a bedroom. Patterson said there was no sign of forced entry.

According to public records, the home is owned by Hudson's mother, but both Jennifer and Jason have been listed as residents for the second apartment.

The Tribune reported that Hudson is not injured, according to her bodyguard. ABC News reported that Hudson was traveling to Chicago from Tampa, Florida.

So sad & tragic!

May they rest in peace

Boyfriend was captured a while ago.

Tragic yes...but could have been avoided...as many domestic crimes can.

They had warning signs...but didn't pay attention to them.

What signs?

Oh, when the boyfriend (on parole for murder) was upset with his girlfriend and said,

"you called the police on me...I'm gonna kill your whole family".

There are some threats you take seriously, and some you don't.

There are some people you just shouldn't let in your house, no matter what.

Sorry if I don't sound sympathetic enough, but people who knowingly let murders and gang-bangers

hang around or hang around with their family members, are asking for problems.

PLUS, if anyone else here said it, they might be called a racist.

I'm just a realist.

Are there really no people that deserve the death penalty? Really?

Some people are simply evil and have no place in civilized society.

[Ling Ling 22]

Fcuking Stupid Biitch!

The mother of the child (wife of alleged murderer) called the police when he took her car without permission...

but when he threatened to kill her entire family...no call to the police.

This is truly tragic...and pisses me the ** off.

How can people do evil shiit like this?

My condolences go out to the friends and family, as well as my hope for swift and accurate justice.

Why kill a 7-year old?

[Mommy2ZaidnSalma 11]

Occured only 20 mins from my house. Ive never been to Englewood but i have heard horror stories about it froma friend of mine who grew up there. Condolences to her family. To bury 3 people in the same week is not something a family should have to go through.

Its a very bad neighborhood. I wonder why the family would want to stay there after having Ms Hudson earn enough to get them out.

An aunt of the actress also owns a local funeral home that will handle the ceremonies. So sad.

That's awful. That's just awful. I'm glad IL doesn't use the DP so that chopfcuk can sit in a max security cell and think about what he's done for the rest of his miserable life.

This happened in Chicago.

Isn't that where Obama is from?
