Jennifer Hudson's mother and brother were found shot to death in her Chicago home Friday afternoon, according to reports.
A representative from Hudson family's church, Pleasant Gift Missionary Baptist, confirms to the Chicago Sun-Times that Hudson's mother, Darnell Donnerson-Hudson, 57, was murdered. TMZ.com confirms Hudson's brother, Jason, was also a victim.
"Officers responded to a call of two people found unresponsive," Chicago Police Department spokesman John Mirabell tells USmagazine.com. "They discovered a male and female that had sustained fatal gunshot wounds. "Right now, our investigation is a double homicide," the spokesman tells US. "We understand family members are on the scene."
Officer Mirabell would not confirm details of the shooting, TMZ.com reports a cousin who lives nearby discovered the bodies. Police spokeswoman Monique Bond said the deaths appear to be a result of domestic abuse, the Associated Press reported. The police said they issued an Amber Alert for 7-year-old Julian King who may have been abducted by William Balfour, a suspect who is considered armed and dangerous.
Balfour may be driving a white 1994 Chevrolet Suburban with Illinois license plate No.X584859 or a teal/green Chrysler Concord four-door with a left front headlight hanging out that is scratched all along its left side. The Chrysler is displaying temporary tags of 332K823, according to the Chicago Tribune.
Hudson has been outspoken about how close she is with her family. Hudson praises her mother and brother in the liner notes of her self-titled debut album (released September 30). After thanking God, Hudson writes: Next, of course is u mommy Darnell A.K.A. DOLL...thank u for instilling in me that I could do anything I put my mind to and teaching me to always put God first. Thank you for loving me no matter what. Then, To the original JHUDS, my big bro and sis JASON and JULIA, I love you so much. Thank you both for rooting me on and believing in me and never letting me settle for just ok but the best. Because of u, I don't believe in limits. LIL JULIAN KING my lil nephew, I love u, baby.
Neighbor Angela Russell describes Darnell as a woman who had barbecues at her home. "She was very kind and very social," Russell tells USmagazine.com.
"She was extremely proud of her daughter but she didn't let it go to her head. She refused to move out of the neighborhood, she wanted to stay here, this was her home.
