In a shocking turn of events, Oscar-winning actress Jennifer Hudson’s mother and brother were found dead at her Chicago home earlier today. The suspect, William Balfour, has been taken into custody by the Chicago police. Also, Julian King, the 7-year-old nephew of the actress, is missing from the scene, probably abducted by the suspect.
As per reports appearing in TMZ, the bodies were discovered by one of Jennifer’s cousin at around 2:44 PM ET, who then called the fire department. There is still too much confusion about the real motive behind the double murder, as there are still no words from the actress or his rep. However, the needle of suspicion is pointing towards William, because of his alleged feud with the Hudson family, which ensued after he tried stealing a car, a week ago. William had vowed revenge at that time.
Though William has been taken into custody, Julian is still missing. Ironically, Julian’s mother (Jennifer’s sister Julia) is also missing. As of now, it is difficult to guess anything because William is not co-operating with the police and the family members are unavailable for comments.
