This is so awful. I had really hoped they might find him alive. I can't imagine how confused and scared he must have been all alone in that car with Balfour or whoever did it... he was just a baby.

Did the extended family all live together in the same house? The mom, brother, sister and her child, plus Balfour?

Maybe I feel like being heartless because a little boy who had absolutely nothing to do with this foolishness was killed, but the sister gets the least of my pity (for what that's worth) because her horrible judgment led to the murder of most of her immediate family. She brought this animal into their lives and their home.

Agree 100%. Plus, something's going on with the sister because her behavior as of late, seems real suspect.

This is reported from sandrarose.com:
As the search for Oscar-winning actress Jennifer Hudson’s 7-year-old nephew intensified over the weekend, many are turning a wary eye toward the boy’s mother — Jennifer’s older sister, Julia Hudson.

Julian King went missing the same day his grandmother and uncle were gunned down in their Englewood home early Friday (10/24). He hasn’t been seen or heard from since.

Questions first started to arise early Saturday morning when it appeared that Julia logged into her Myspace page to accept friend requests.

In an emotional plea Saturday for the safe return of her son, Julia King appeared well-rested and her hair was immaculately laid. Now I’m not judging Julia Hudson, but I can’t see a grieving mother sitting in a beauty salon for hours while her hair is curled and spritzed.

Add to this the fact that Julia reportedly returned home from work Friday to find the body of her mother lying on the living room floor. But Hudson is a school bus driver and Friday was a teacher work day in Chicago. Meaning, school was out for children.

Also, when she made her public plea Saturday, Hudson seemed to know that her son’s abductor was not her estranged husband. William Balfour was arrested late Friday but never charged.

Balfour was turned over to the state dept. of corrections on Sunday for violating his parole in a case unrelated to the murders. A judge could set him free as early as this week.

It’s obvious that Balfour is no longer a suspect or he would still be in police custody. Chicago police forensics technicians dusted the front door and inside the home for fingerprints and didn’t find any belonging to Balfour.

All of this is leading to speculation that Julia is somehow involved.

Jennifer Hudson has offered a $100,000 reward for the safe return of her nephew. Police are still looking for a 1994 white Chevy Suburban with license plate: X58-4859. Anyone with information is asked to call Chicago police
