Jennifer Hudson's Mother and Brother DEAD!!!

The brutal murder of actress/singer Jennifer Hudson's mother and brother and the abduction of her nephew.
Here's what we know so far:

On Friday morning at approximately 9:00 AM a gunman approached the home where Darnell Donerson (Jennifer Hudson's mother), Jason Hudson (Jennifer's brother) and Julian King (Jennifer's nephew) were staying.

The gunman fired through the door striking Hudson's brother, Jason, 29 and killing him

The shooter then entered the house and continued to fire, hitting Hudson's mother when she entered the room.

Police believe that the killer (or killers) then abducted Julian and fled in Jason's white Chevrolet Suburban, plate number X584859

At approximately 3 PM, a family member discovered the body of Darnell and called authorities

Julia Hudson (Jennifer's sister) returned home from work that evening - and learned what happened

Julia contacted Jennifer and told her what happened. Jennifer immediately left promoting her new movie Secret Lives Of Bees and returned to Chicago.

According to the Chicago Tribune, at 1:25 a.m, Jennifer Hudson identified the bodies of the deceased as Darnell Donerson and Jason Hudson

Shortly after that Jennifer's brother-in-law (Julia's husband) William Balfour was taken into custody as a suspect in the murders

William Balfour has reportedly invoked his right to remain silent and is refusing to cooperate with investigators

Julian King has not yet been found. The F.B.I. and the Chicago police department are working tirelessly to find him - but they need your help. If you have any information on the whereabouts of 7 year old Julian, please contact the Chicago Police Department at 312-745-6052.

As far as motives, there have been numerous. The Chicago tribune has a number of possible motives for the crime. Here's what they're reporting:

Family friends said the couple recently had a dispute over Julia Hudson's car. Balfour sold the 2003 Chevrolet Impala without her consent and she called police, neighbor Chiquita Stanton said.

Julia Hudson complained on her MySpace page about losing the car and suggested she now depended upon her brother, Jason, to drive her to work. Michele Balfour said her son co-owned the car, but only Julia Hudson's name is on the registration.

Stanton said Balfour threatened to take the boy away if Julia Hudson continued to "play him." But she considered him harmless because he was "keen to stay out of jail" after serving prison time on a 1999 attempted murder and carjacking conviction. Balfour's family said he stole a car with other teens and hit a tree while the driver was on the hood.
