Wow, what a horrible weekend for Jennifer Hudson, who should be enjoying her new film, “The Secret Life Of Bees,” as well as a recent engagement to “Punk” from the VH1 reality series “I Love New York.”

Instead, her time has been spent identifying bodies of her loved ones and issuing a plea on her MySpace page to please return her 7-year-old nephew, Julian King, who has now been declared missing. An Amber Alert has been issued for his safe return. At this point in time there have been no clues as to his return.

And this brings something to mind: While my job is to bring you the unvarnished news and report what the other news agencies will not and cannot, there really is nothing funny about the terrible tragedies that have occurred this weekend on the south side of Chicago.

Police have taken into custody one William Balfour, 27, of Chicago, the estranged husband of Julia Hudson, Jennifer’s sister and little Julian’s mother. He has only been listed in reports as a suspect, however, and has not been charged with any crime.

Here is the public plea Hudson posted on her MySpace. Julian King’s picture is above.

Thank You All

Thank you all for your prayers and your calls. Please keep praying for our family and that we get Julian King back home safely. If anyone has any information about his whereabouts please contact the authorities immediately. Here is a picture of Julian and what he was last seen wearing. Once again thank you all for being there for us through this tough time.Sincerely,
The Hudson Family

We will post updates as soon as we get them. Our hearts and prayers go out to the Hudson family at this time.
