*UPDATED* The Latest In The Hudson Tragedy

The Hudson family tragedy on the cover of the upcoming issue of People magazine
There have been a few developments in the last several hours. It has been discovered that William Balfour was actually arrested on drug charges again just this June–which violated his previous parole for attempted murder and drug possession. It is now also believed that William–if guilty–may have had help. The time line of the murders, cars being driven by the suspect, and time that William saw his girlfriends are all pointing to the possibility of another party being involved in that fatally tragic morning. The Chicago Tribune has the full update.
Also, William’s mother went on CNN’s Nancy Grace Show last night trying to clear her son’s name with the public:
It’s taking everything in me not to go the hell off about the foolishness Michelle Balfour was talking about in this video. I’ll reserve my complete judgment for when official charges and a conviction happen in this case.
Yesterday’s details are here.
UPDATE: TMZ is reporting that Jason Hudson, Julia Hudson, and Gregory King (little Julian King’s biological father) were all arrested on crack cocaine charges back in ‘02. Only Jason and Gregory were convicted though. The entire Hudson home was raided by authorities back in ‘02. Jason and Gregory were also allegedly in the same Gangster Disciple street gang as suspect William Balfour. It is being determined if drugs and gang affiliation had anything to do with the murders. The full story here.
The murder weapon has been found and police believe they know who the accomplice in the murders is. Story

I get really irritated by the mother of Balfour. She really just needs to not say anything. Clearly he had something to do with this tragedy. Instead of just stepping back to see what happens, she keeps speaking her ignorance. I know a mother wants to NOT believe that a child that came from her could be so hanous. But the fact is that he has a consistent record of being evil. My heart goes to Jennifer and her family. It’s enough that they have to deal with this, but the medias coverage of the nonsense statements of the evil dudes mother, must add insult to injury.

Ok I saw this last night.Im surprised Nancy let that other story pass her by about that Caylee (sp) girl.
The mom…I know, delusional maybe?I understand a mother’s motive to thinking her son is not a bad person.

He did more than steal a car…he tried to dislodge the person for jumping on the roof of their own care while he tried to steal it…that’s where the attempted murder charge came in…

This is such a sensitive situtation…I feel so bad for them. I would never even want to imagine what the Hudson family must be going through.
His mother
She isnt really offering any help disclosing all the wrong he has done in the past…not that his case deserves any help!

Here are facts that they are not saying:
There was a trap across the street from the house
William was a GD (Gangsta Disiple, its a huge gang in Chicago, they make their money by selling drugs)
He had a bit of a coke habit
The family through large babeques every Sunday…so instead of keeping a low profile…everybody in the neighborhood knew how they was “balling”
The suburban was parked at 12 something on friday and it was “noticed” until Monday morning
Jilian King would have been in school, but Friday was a staff development day…..

Also there was trap in another house across the street….which could be “family operated”…..
They also through big parties every weekend….so instead of layin low with their new found money they let the whole damn neighborhood know how much they was “ballin”
Also, Julian King would have been in school if Friday hadnt been a staff development day….that’s probably why he got kidnapped because he wasnt suppose to be there….
The White Chevy Suburban was Jennifer’s brother’s car….so he stole that car and parked it about a mile from where his girl lived.

Low self esteem is a MOTHER - and will lead women to the wrong type of man because they act like they love them.

True, no one EVER knows what will happen in life, i.e. if people will flake out on you, molest your kids, or whatever.
I’m not saying that Jenn’s sister brought this on her family, because who knew ANYTHING of this magnitude would happen. BUT, you still have a choice when choosing who to date, introduce family to, bring your kids around, etc.
I really hate this happened, but it happens everyday, unfortunately. It’s just a high profile case this time around. Horrible….

and i’m abso-damn-lutely beside myself that she would speak ill of the dead like that to have the first thing that come out her mouth “Jason was selling drugs” i so assholian it’s borderline retarded!
then to suggest that Julia planted drugs in her son’s car so he can get arrested was so stupid, i can’t believe she parted her lips to say that!
if julia did plant drugs (which i find unlikely) how did she know he was going to get pulled over by the police? come on now. .let’s be realistic!
your son was convicted of ATTEMPTED MURDER and now you wanna talk about his job. . beyoch go kick rocks. .somebody’s mama, brother and nephew are all dead and you want to talk ill of them and act like your son is innocent?

I know about Chicago gangs - I still think, in my opinion that those street gangs your are talking about are far from the Mob or Mafia they are liken to.
but I do know ALL about Chicago gangs sis…I am not un-informed. Its just that when you said MOB I was thinking the F-ing MOB like the Sporanos…

i don’t think it’s always low self esteem just because you want to love some one, julia seemed like a well adjusted, productive WOMAN, i think she just wanted to love someone and have it be reciprocated.

While everyone is innocent until proven guilty. I find it very disturbing that Williams Balfours mother is defending her son and his actions instead of making him responsible not for his present actions but for past actions. And then to go on and say that Jason Hudson was selling drugs out of the house. While that may be so… He isn’t the one on trial.. I love my people.

That’s what you think….I suggest you do your reaseach on CHICAGO gangs…..they run the city….
Vice Lords
GD
Blackstones….
Those gangs are still alive and operating…but now its not as organized as it used to be and its all bout dope and territories…..[/quote]
I know about Chicago gangs - I still think, in my opinion that those street gangs your are talking about are far from the Mob or Mafia they are liken to.
but I do know ALL about Chicago gangs sis…I am not un-informed. Its just that when you said MOB I was thinking the F-ing MOB like the Sporanos…[/quote]
———————————————————————————–
It’s different levels….you got those Sporano types to deal with the city people like keeping the mayor and all those types in line…cause Chicago’s City Hall is corrupt as hell.
The “street gangs” keeps the citizens in line…they control the flow of the dope and everthing that comes with that…

Hey, I need to ask a stupid question. I can’t see the CNN story from work so I went to the site. It says that he was with 2 different women, 1 Friday night, and 1 Saturday morning. My question is this, in 2 parts. If he went to jail for almost 7 years and Julian is 7 (and is his step-son)and he was release May 2008, when did he marry Julia and and when did they seperate?

[quote comment="259297"]Here are facts that they are not saying:
There was a trap across the street from the house
William was a GD (Gangsta Disiple, its a huge gang in Chicago, they make their money by selling drugs)
He had a bit of a coke habit
The family through large babeques every Sunday…so instead of keeping a low profile…everybody in the neighborhood knew how they was “balling”
The suburban was parked at 12 something on friday and it was “noticed” until Monday morning
Jilian King would have been in school, but Friday was a staff development day…..[/quote]
I heard about his involvement in the gang, and their bbqs, and I also heard about the reason for Julian being at home. The trap is new. I know they’re not telling us everything and I get so tired of the word, sources.

I understand that a mother doesn’t want to think of her own son as a fuck up but she really needs to come to her senses. She’s trying to make it seem like it wasn’t that bad when he stole somebodies car. Of course the other guy is going to try to get it back, its his car. Her son is the stupid one that drove off at a high speed. Did she think he could do something like that then. Probably not, so what makes her so sure that he couldn’t have committed these murders. She’s all upset that people painting a bad picture of him, well when three people are murdered what do you expect. She really needs to just shut up.

from what i read it’s not really known if they were legally married, unless i haven’t been caught up it was a speculation that they ran with (them being married) again i could be mistaken.

truer words have never been spoken! me and my mom had a strained relationship because when the choice was given to her to leave my step dad or i move out, she picked the latter and i had to go live with my dad.
it took me a while to forgive her for that and now i’m almost 32 trying to have a woman to woman relationship with her.
you just have to be careful who you bring home and how they treat your kids. know his background and don’t be afraid to ask and really watch how they interact with your kids and if your kids tell you something’s wrong LISTEN TO THEM!

“Listen to what I fidna tell ya” …The mother is CRAZY and she is doing more harm than good to her son by coming on national television to try to “explain somethin’ to y’all.” She is talking in circles and attempting to clarify information that is unneeded and has never been misconstrued. She is pulling out all the stops when she needs to keep her mouth shut. She can’t state an alibi because there is none. Her son Raymond told her that William was by one of his girlfriends… Yeah right! Raymond was probably with William killing the Hudson family! She needs to sit down somewhere.

This isn’t real delveoplment sadly :sigh: I knew there had to be more than 1… If that car truly appeared Monday morning, William may be right in that he “didn’t do it” on the account of someone else pullin the trigger..but he’s involved in some way. He passed that boy off and when they realized the had to dispose of the boy, his help killed him probably. WTF is up with this mom still talking??? Wait until a trial,etc happens before you wanna clear someone’s name.

What a mess. She is typical, my baby aint no thug, he is a good boy, oh drugs not his someone else planted them, he was stealing a car, but the man whose car it was, was choking him!!!! That is what is wrong with a lot of our men these mothers who don’t raise them to take responsibility for their actions. If he did it then the will be a place for him in HELL and the truth will come out soon. I feel sorry for his family because they are in denial and they need to apologize to the Hudson family for what this criminal may have done.

Women, when it comes to bringing men into your life, RAISE THE F***ING BAR AND YOUR STANDARDS!
In this case, this motherf***er had proven that he has no regard for life or property before he got with Julia Hudson. And no respect for her since he had other women.
And this bastard’s mother needs to get a grip-your son is a piece of shit.

Depends on the age of my kids….if I had little kids then I aint bringing him around them for a long, long time….
If they was over 14 or 15, then maybe because by that time the kids are almost grown….but I’d probably wait until they was grown to be on the safe side….

he had to have had help…even IF (big IF) he didn’t do it, he either know who did or helped plan it either way unless he put on a patti labelle wig and start singing like he’s in concert, he’s taking these three murders by himself.

Part of being a good mother is having a sense of accountability and being able to admit when your child is dead ass wrong. What part of her son having something to do with this is she confused about? Irregardless of “her side” of the story and what he and Julia were going through at, the end of the day he harmed innocent people and it is so damn sad that she is in denial. Clearly William has never had to be accountable for a damn thing in his mother’s eyes. She had the audacity to be defending the fact that he almost killed someone while stealing a car as self-defense? Seriously, what about the fact that his tired ass just should not have been stealing someone’s car. I was so irritated that she would be putting the victim of the car theft out there as if he was wrong.I am seriously leaning toward I.Q test being required before having children. I really want to believe that his mother is retarded which is the reason she keeps opening her mouth, which would be her only damn excuse.

and i found this on another site…..
By Ismael AbduSalaam
Chicago police have released evidence today (October 29), suggesting more than one person was involved in the triple murder involving singer Jennifer Hudson’s family.
An even more horrifying fact has emerged in the case, as AllHipHop.com has learned that one of Julian King’s hands was also cut off, suggesting that he may have been being held for ransom.
The boy was also shot in the head, although it is not known if his hand was severed prior to, or after his death.
The investigation has revolved around primary suspect William Balfour, estranged husband of Jennifer’s sister Julia Hudson, who was apprehended on Friday (October 24).
Although not charged with the South Side slayings, Balfour is being held on parole violations.
Witnesses placed Balfour in his teal Chrysler on the block of the murder scene last Friday at 7 AM. Later, the car was discovered parked a mile away at Robeson High School.
His girlfriend later verified he was at the home where Oscar-winner Jennifer Hudson’s mother, Darnell Donerson, and brother Jason were shot to death.
On Monday (October 27), the body of 7-year old nephew Julian King was discovered several miles away in Jason Hudson’s Chevy Suburban.
The child was also the victim of multiple gunshot wounds. Security video from Robeson High School shows someone parking Balfour’s Chrysler on Friday, but a positive ID could not be made of the individual.
The video stamp also shows the car was left at 12:30 pm.
However, cell phone records place Balfour on the West Side of Chicago at that time, which indicates another suspect drove the vehicle from the South Side Hudson murder scene to the high school.
The possible origin of the crime is alleged to be over a car dispute between Balfour and his estranged wife Julia Hudson.
At the time of his apprehension, Balfour was on parole for a 1999 attempted murder conviction, and had been arrested in June for possession of cocaine.
At press time, police report that William Balfour is still not cooperating with any questioning.

[quote comment="259388"][quote comment="259364"]i fell so bad for you bella things like that get me so mad (like alot of other shit lately)
I have a very imprtant question for all you ladies. Please answer, esp the ones with children. In light of the current situation and stories coming to light: if you found you’re self being single, would you prefer to stay single until you’re children were grown (or moved out the house), or would you let a person that you’re serious about into you kids lives??[/quote]
———————————————————————-
Depends on the age of my kids….if I had little kids then I aint bringing him around them for a long, long time….
If they was over 14 or 15, then maybe because by that time the kids are almost grown….but I’d probably wait until they was grown to be on the safe side….[/quote]
I was looking for this original question, but it is too much back’scrolling going on…
I would not wait until my children are grown. My foundation is in Jesus Christ and if my partner’s is not then it’s a no go from jump street. God will let you know if this person is right or wrong. He gives many signals, you just have to be in tune with the Father in order to hear and see them. You can’t be so caught up in yourself and that guy and leave Jesus on the back burner.. You will miss out on alot like that… I don’t love anybody, more than I love God. I would want my partner in my child’s life right now.. (if I knew he was the right one)..that will give them a chance for their bond to grow stronger. You all know how hard it is to adapt to someone as you get older.

One source spilled the beans when they said William still wasn’t charged and they were questioning “several other people.” The police are using the parole violation as an excuse to hold him longer. All I know is this case is too complex and involves alot of hatred. Things like this happen in neighborhood’s all the time but the whole kidnapping,etc is extra. Folks are just usually killed right there, the block knows info and doesn’t say. Either Balfour’s gang members had his back or this long feud Julia had became even bigger than the two. Parties will be pulled into drama especially in hood areas..everyone knows every1’s business. Too many folks all of a sudden speaking out. Someone got a warning somehow.. lemme stop before I get spazzed on.

William must be her baby boy, her only boy, or the son of her “true love”. Those son’s often have “Prince” status in the eyes of their mother and can do no wrong.

True. Yeah the bro was only living at the mom’s house temporarily. Some ish went down supposedly with him last year to the point where he got shot and has been in his mom’s house ever since. Then again if he was involved in an alteraction, I doubt he would only have gotten shot in the chest.. the mom got it in the head which is OD (just like the nephew). It doesn’t seem like the were worried about the bro much. I don’t know man…

I’ve seen it a lot too! Mothers defending their criminal sons, girlfriends defending their criminal boyfriends. Obviously everyone who is accused of a crime isn’t guilty, but for those that are, they should be held accountable for their actions. If we continue to do that all we do is enable their behaviour which, in effect, condones it!!

I have a very imprtant question for all you ladies. Please answer, esp the ones with children. In light of the current situation and stories coming to light: if you found you’re self being single, would you prefer to stay single until you’re children were grown (or moved out the house), or would you let a person that you’re serious about into you kids lives??[/quote]
———————————————————————-
Depends on the age of my kids….if I had little kids then I aint bringing him around them for a long, long time….
If they was over 14 or 15, then maybe because by that time the kids are almost grown….but I’d probably wait until they was grown to be on the safe side….[/quote]
I was looking for this original question, but it is too much back’scrolling going on…
I would not wait until my children are grown. My foundation is in Jesus Christ and if my partner’s is not then it’s a no go from jump street. God will let you know if this person is right or wrong. He gives many signals, you just have to be in tune with the Father in order to hear and see them. You can’t be so caught up in yourself and that guy and leave Jesus on the back burner.. You will miss out on alot like that… I don’t love anybody, more than I love God. I would want my partner in my child’s life right now.. (if I knew he was the right one)..that will give them a chance for their bond to grow stronger. You all know how hard it is to adapt to someone as you get older.[/quote]
————————————————————————–
That’s true too…I’m a little jaded about the situation bcecause what happend to me…but woman do be bringing VARIOUS men over their children’s head and you never know what that man is thinking…..
My mother found my middle brother’s daddy sitting on the toliet with a knife to his throat…..she told him HE had to go…but she let my stepfather stay…cause to her he was good man dispite what he did to me…….
Just be careful who you bring over your kids heads…..be molested is NO JOKE…it takes a lot of your self esteem away, its hard to trust men…and when I was in college I used to have nightmares about what happened..it was crazy…and my guy is still having to deal with my crazy ass, LOL!!

WOW…to the Dumb Mother she put all the business out their…. naming her other son, Raymond- his ass was probably driving the other car….the TWO OTHER girlfriends…the crazy negro was with one at night and the other one in the morning…She trying to claim he has some type of morals. If she dont shut her damn mouth…oh so now I guess its her duty to say Jason was a drug dealer and Julia planted the drugs in Williams car.
That mother need to close her mouth, she puttin too many layers on this crazyness to cover for that nicca.
and our we to believe….some drug dealers came and shot up the family, stole the white suv and then drove it 14 miles from Jennifers mothers house then to 2 miles away from the girlfriends house.

I’m so lost as to who was the target. Jason or William? It would do no damage to William if Julia’s family is killed - only jail if he gets pinned for it. If to kill someone means nothing to the gang, why not kill Will and his Mom. Are they really seeking publicity or looking to get their $$. Cuz they really ain’t gonna shit now. Best believe Jenny will be in Hollywood for real. even if she don’t never do nothing else.

While no one deserves what has happened to this family; this entire ordeal speaks volumes of the neighborhood J-Hud lived in and the type of people they kept company with. Here this girl is an academy awrard winner and all of this “drug” shish is plastered all over the t.v. That has to put a blemish on her career. And then there’s the picture of J-Hud and William with the Oscar. I’ve heard sometimes your company and family can bring you down. Damn ~ just DAMN!!!

Unfortunately, she probably won’t even go back and listen to own foolishness. What Nancy Grace should have said, “I’m sorry Ms. Balfour for your son having to go through such an ordeal while stealing a car…now, that owner knows he should have let your son drive anyway and probably sell the car parts for money to give you and his older brother and to take his TWO girlfriends out to dinner. How dear that man try to catch your son while stealing his car?” Now, that my friends, is what Ms. Balfour was looking for Nancy Grace to say. Oh, and by the way, why the heck is your son stealing a car at 16 anyway…doesn’t he (this great, sweet child that you have so greatly raised) have any values?

Girl my mother does not play…hell she let my brother stay in jail for speeding tickets. She felt that:1.His ass should have been driving the speed limit 2. She had been warning him to pay them and he didn’t. He did the crime and the time. If she laid the slap down about something so minor as tickets she would be no joke if he did something as awful as this. A good mother can look past the fact that this is her “baby” and deal with the fact that her child has done wrong which affects other people.

Folks trying to make money off this… dude advertise bed gun racks:
If the Hudson triple-murders weren’t awful enough — some sleazeball is now using the tragedy to scare you into buying his company’s product.
A. John Peters — we’re guessin’ the A stands for A-hole — sent out a press release with the unbelievable title: “Could a Bedside Shotgun Rack Have Saved Jennifer Hudson’s Family from Tragic Death?”
The answer is most likely no. Only one of the three victims was shot in a bedroom.
A-Hole says he didn’t issue the release to capitalize on the family’s pain — but are you buyin’ what he’s sellin’?

I guess I’m the only one who thinks that Ms. Balfour made some potentially valid points. The media IS villifying her son, as though he’s never done anything productive and good in life. But no one has publicly questioned Julia’s decision to MARRY him and make him a role model for her son. She must not have thought he was so bad, huh? Now the GED and the job at Cosi may not be relevant, but neither is his “mile long rap sheet” unless you can place him at the scene of this here crime between the hours of 9 and 3. But the nature of the crime makes Jason’s potential drug selling all the more relevant. The baby mama who is now stating Balfour had something to do with it is also a woman who is willingly sleeping with a married man raw. No one considers she might be talking out of pure bitterness, but we dismiss Ms. Balfour as delusionl for thinking her son may be innocent? At the end of the day, it took the police 3 days to find a Suburban that some neighbors said was parked on the street- tags in place- at least since Friday. People are finally recognizing that it had to be more than one person- he can’t drive 2 cars at once. There’s a lot of accountability in this story, and far too much is resting on William Balfour without the connecting facts to support it.

If it weren’t for him, there would be no threats, no gang, no senseless killings..I want to see him in jail, that seems to be where he is most comfortable anyway… I’m just stating what I think went down. None of us know what happened, none of us are Ms.Cleo…

[quote comment="259524"][quote comment="259464"][quote comment="259419"][quote comment="259390"]Part of being a good mother is having a sense of accountability and being able to admit when your child is dead ass wrong. What part of her son having something to do with this is she confused about? Irregardless of “her side” of the story and what he and Julia were going through at, the end of the day he harmed innocent people and it is so damn sad that she is in denial. Clearly William has never had to be accountable for a damn thing in his mother’s eyes. She had the audacity to be defending the fact that he almost killed someone while stealing a car as self-defense? Seriously, what about the fact that his tired ass just should not have been stealing someone’s car. I was so irritated that she would be putting the victim of the car theft out there as if he was wrong.I am seriously leaning toward I.Q test being required before having children. I really want to believe that his mother is retarded which is the reason she keeps opening her mouth, which would be her only damn excuse.[/quote]
YOU ARE SO RIGHT! I worked for the court system before and you could not imagne how many mothers will defend their cold blooded kiiler children! just because it came out your womb doesn’t mean it’s right! LAWD! The woman blamed it all on the victims! hot mess![/quote]
Co-post, co-post.[/quote]
Girl my mother does not play…hell she let my brother stay in jail for speeding tickets. She felt that:1.His ass should have been driving the speed limit 2. She had been warning him to pay them and he didn’t. He did the crime and the time. If she laid the slap down about something so minor as tickets she would be no joke if he did something as awful as this. A good mother can look past the fact that this is her “baby” and deal with the fact that her child has done wrong which affects other people.[/quote]
It’s exactly what tell my son. “If you ever get picked up- I’m not coming to get you”. “Wrong place wrong time, well your ass shouldn’t have been there in the 1st place”.
So far so good, but he knows I don’t play that. We don’t travel in those circles anyway. When I finished school I had to move away and do private school & all. Too much stupidity in the world/hood.

William did not steal the car at sixteen Mrs Balfour is lieing. How dare she come on air and bash the dead . She dont know what William has done and shold have kept her mouth shut. This interview has angered alot of people and drama can def come out of it esp. when she said that Jason was selling drugs. If i see Mrs Balfour walking down the road I swear I will back hand the bitch!!!!

[quote comment="259545"]I guess I’m the only one who thinks that Ms. Balfour made some potentially valid points. The media IS villifying her son, as though he’s never done anything productive and good in life. But no one has publicly questioned Julia’s decision to MARRY him and make him a role model for her son. She must not have thought he was so bad, huh? Now the GED and the job at Cosi may not be relevant, but neither is his “mile long rap sheet” unless you can place him at the scene of this here crime between the hours of 9 and 3. But the nature of the crime makes Jason’s potential drug selling all the more relevant. The baby mama who is now stating Balfour had something to do with it is also a woman who is willingly sleeping with a married man raw. No one considers she might be talking out of pure bitterness, but we dismiss Ms. Balfour as delusionl for thinking her son may be innocent? At the end of the day, it took the police 3 days to find a Suburban that some neighbors said was parked on the street- tags in place- at least since Friday. People are finally recognizing that it had to be more than one person- he can’t drive 2 cars at once. There’s a lot of accountability in this story, and far too much is resting on William Balfour without the connecting facts to support it.[/quote]
Ms. Donna you do have a very valid point. Julia most certainly should be held accountable for her decision making, but can you seriously deny how ignorant Ms. Balfour’s statements were?

She can’t even answer the questions straight without putting a question on a question. She cna’t eve nsay where he was that night. Now after all, she done put her foot in his mouth for him with the questions she asking, it all point s to the rabid dog she covering up.

It was his damn car…..I’m mad that I just listened to that. She is the reason why I am so nervous about teaching in the neighborhood I will be. Soooo many parents that think JUST like that are the reason why so many young men and women think they can do anything b/c mama is gonna bail them out. Every dog has his day, like my mama says. His time is up. If he didn’t do it, he knows who did. Either way his life is over so he just needs to run his mouth like his mother

What makes you say CLEARLY he did this?????
NO ONE KNOWS FOR SURE AT THIS POINT. The police have NOT charged him yet, and he did TURN HIMSELF IN, he was NOT arrested.
And how can you say he has a history of EVIL. Do YOU know him????
His previous attempted murder charge was b/c a man jumped on a car and he just simply drove off.
The evil is that he had to serve 9 years for STEALING a car!
The Police now believe that MORE than 1 person was involved in this tragedy and Jason was might have been selling drugs from the house, sooooo just MAYBE William may not have had a hand in this.

I have a very imprtant question for all you ladies. Please answer, esp the ones with children. In light of the current situation and stories coming to light: if you found you’re self being single, would you prefer to stay single until you’re children were grown (or moved out the house), or would you let a person that you’re serious about into you kids lives??[/quote]
———————————————————————-
Depends on the age of my kids….if I had little kids then I aint bringing him around them for a long, long time….
If they was over 14 or 15, then maybe because by that time the kids are almost grown….but I’d probably wait until they was grown to be on the safe side….[/quote]
I was looking for this original question, but it is too much back’scrolling going on…
I would not wait until my children are grown. My foundation is in Jesus Christ and if my partner’s is not then it’s a no go from jump street. God will let you know if this person is right or wrong. He gives many signals, you just have to be in tune with the Father in order to hear and see them. You can’t be so caught up in yourself and that guy and leave Jesus on the back burner.. You will miss out on alot like that… I don’t love anybody, more than I love God. I would want my partner in my child’s life right now.. (if I knew he was the right one)..that will give them a chance for their bond to grow stronger. You all know how hard it is to adapt to someone as you get older.[/quote]
Good question and good answer….
For us women dating already is hard….you dont know what kind of facade someone is tryna run on you….let alone having your children in the mix. Whomever you date and have around your child, your child is basically dating too. And children are so wise and observant….they know everything going on around them. I chose to break up with my son’s dad because I felt him as his biological dad didnt have his priorities in order….I’ll be damn if imma bring someone else around him with the same attitude and outlook on life….

it seems like you may actually have a problem with comprehension. i asked you how WOW was dumb for telling you that it was potentially insulting to say that not one person from englewood is good for something. I didn’t say you dont live in chicago. i didnt say you dont know any gang members (is that something to be so proud of anyway?). i didnt say the 429 murders perpetrated in chicago this year were not committed by gang members (although the 1 person i do know that was killed this summer was killed by a group of drunk white boys). you are having trouble responding to a given question. instead you resorted to an insult. so yea, it still stands that i think you should read a book. something with a theme other than ‘black ignorance’. something closer to ‘black intelligence’ is what i meant.

You made some good points. Sometimes it is difficult to think rationally in the middle of such a tragic situation. But you are right that we don’t have all the facts. Not saying he isn’t involved but he is innocent in the eyes of the law until proven guilty…or confesses.

according to the Chicago tribune, there was a church across from the house.
[quote comment="259297"]Here are facts that they are not saying:
There was a trap across the street from the house
William was a GD (Gangsta Disiple, its a huge gang in Chicago, they make their money by selling drugs)
He had a bit of a coke habit
The family through large babeques every Sunday…so instead of keeping a low profile…everybody in the neighborhood knew how they was “balling”
The suburban was parked at 12 something on friday and it was “noticed” until Monday morning
Jilian King would have been in school, but Friday was a staff development day…..[/quote]

This is what is wrong in our community. HE STOLE A CAR. You CANNOT STEAL other people’s things, it is ILLEGAL! Second he drove off with the victim on the car, basically saying “screw you, I am going to take your shit anyway even if you get hurt”. He deserved what he got. That man could have very well been killed. Personally I would not have jumped on top of my car as it is being stolen but he did and William made the decision to still roll with it. The fact of the matter is that he was DEAD ASS WRONG for that. Bill Cosby spoke about this very issue. People are always in an uproar about the extreme amounts of time that Blacks receive in relation to Whites, but the bottom line is that if you don’t commit crimes then you won’f find yourself in that situation.

I can answer that clearly — I AM SINGLE BY CHOICE. I absolutely refuse to let anyone meet my children. Mainly because they are so young and impresionable (sp). When the time comes (when they are in their late teens) then maybe I’ll think about becoming emotionally attached to someone. But hey I seriously doubt it because love hurt me so bad I refuse to go through it again.

Now, from listening to this article; it has been clarified that all of a sudden this lunatic in denial (the insane mother) wants to partially state the problems of the married couple( in her sons defense) saying that Julia put the drugs in the car and her brother was selling drugs, how respectible is he if he is married to Julia, staying with his pregnant girlfriend (supposed alibi), and has another girlfriend. What on earth did that innocent child have to do with any of it. No matter how many issues took place throughout the families, no one deserved to die.

You are right! Stealing is wrong and he should NOT have done it. And he did deserve time. BUT 9 YEARS!!! White people kill and don’t get 9 years!!!! The more UNECCESARY time a child (16yr) spends in jail the worst they will become.
And you can’t say that William’s mentality was “screw you, I am going to take your shit anyway even if you get hurt”.
The man was CHOKING William, anyones natural response would be to try to escape from someone choking you. William most likely drove off JUST to be able to breath and save his life! It probably NEVER even crossed his mind that the man could get killed!
The bottom line is that ALL kids do wrong things and all teenagers have stole something. Maybe if he received 1 year and then intense mentoring, he would have been able to go to college and do better in life!

Because jhud is a celebrity you really think her family/brother wasn’t involved in drugs? How silly. Rumor has it he was a drug dealer and he was also shot. I do feel sorry for the family but lets get all the correct facts before we execute the “suspect or suspects”
Why would anyone want to married or be in a relationship with a man that was incarcerated for attempted murder? Its just mind boggling to me.
As for Williams’ mother, she’s only defending her child whether he’s guilty or not, at the end of the day thats her baby!!!!
Im not sure what really happen but there’s more to the story. One thing I know about the media they only tell you what they know will cost an uproar .

The man was CHOKING William, anyones natural response would be to try to escape from someone choking you. William most likely drove off JUST to be able to breath and save his life! It probably NEVER even crossed his mind that the man could get killed!
The bottom line is that ALL kids do wrong things and all teenagers have stole something. Maybe if he received 1 year and then intense mentoring, he would have been able to go to college and do better in life![/quote]
I agree that 9 years is excessive and it is not a secret that whites are more likley to get light sentences is any at all….but if you don’t commit the crime you will not put yourself in that situation. Yes all children do wrong, but not all children do things that extreme. Sorry but I was not stealing cars or doing things like that as a teenager…this is a far cry from coming home later than you are supposed to or cutting up in class. I think you are still missing the bottom line about the car theft. It is wrong. It is people’s natural instinct to defend their family and their property. I am sorry but I have no sympathy for him being choked while stealing someone’s car. He is lucky that is all that happened to him. When he made the decision to continue driving with someone on a car whether it be because he was trying to get away or whatever he was wrong.The mentoring needed to happen long before he was 16, at this point the damage was already done. No matter how you try to defend this, at the end of the day the bottom line is that he is wrong. People have to be held accountable and take responsibility for their actions.

This is what is wrong in our community. HE STOLE A CAR. You CANNOT STEAL other people’s things, it is ILLEGAL! Second he drove off with the victim on the car, basically saying “screw you, I am going to take your shit anyway even if you get hurt”. He deserved what he got.

The fact of the matter is that he was DEAD ASS WRONG for that. Bill Cosby spoke about this very issue.

Sooooo its not Willams fault its societies fault??Because he decided to steal a car and damn near kill the OWNER of the car he should have only did 1 year and then he would have gotten his life together. Yah right that is absolute bullshit he deserved to go to jail for the 7 years that he did. He was a drug dealer, thief,no good menace to society. Don’t make excuses for his ass. This is not a black/white thing its a right and wrong thing and his ass is wrong wrong wrong.

Thanks at least you get my damn point. Apparently they are missing the fact that what he did was DEAD WRONG. If we keep making excuses for one another our communities will never improve. This is exactly what his mother is spending too much time doing.

I agree that it must be more folks involved. WIlliam Balfour could have been on one of his “highs” with cocaine when he committed this heinous crime, but I don’t think he’s the only one involved….by a long shot. And for those of you who aren’t privy to the study of sociology and criminology, there are various types of criminals—-> they all aren’t lumped into ONE category. Violent criminals usually come from broken families, but thats not say they aren’t found in two-parent homes. Molesters usually have been molested themselves…so they in turn transfer it to others. Drug dealers, usually aren’t killers unless you owe them MONEY…or disrespect them. But all in all, I believe whoever did this to the Hudson family, IS A SELFISH, WITHOUT PITY, person that deserves to be punished as well.

Jennifer Hudson family tragedy: Suspect William Balfour’s relatives, friends in disbelief
Get the latest from the Tribune Breaking News Center
See photos from the scene
By Stacy St. Clair and Deanese Williams-Harris | Tribune reporters
October 28, 2008
During his brief marriage to Julia Hudson, William Balfour seemed to embrace the role of stepdad.
He declared himself a “proud parent” on MySpace and decorated his page with photos of a smiling Julian King. The boy also is mentioned in a seven-line autobiography Balfour wrote for the social-networking site.
On their Englewood block, the two often could be seen walking to the park or enjoying barbecues on the front lawn. Balfour, 27, helped support his fledgling family with money he earned as a Cosi baker and frequently indulged his stepson with boys-only trips to Popeyes and McDonald’s, neighbors say.
Balfour’s affection seemed so genuine that friends and relatives struggle to reconcile the involved stepfather with the man authorities call a “person of interest” in the 7-year-old boy’s homicide. Authorities believe that Julian’s shooting death is linked to the Friday slayings of his grandmother Darnell Donerson and his uncle Jason Hudson.
“The guy they’re talking about is nothing like the guy I knew,” said neighbor Ante Moore. “I’m not saying he was a saint, but I do know that he was trying to turn his life around.”
Police named Balfour as a suspect in an Amber Alert released Friday. He currently is at Stateville Correctional Center in Joliet; authorities say he violated his parole by becoming a murder suspect.
Balfour’s criminal rap sheet dates back at least a decade. Court records show that Balfour was arrested in 1998 after police spotted him driving a stolen vehicle. They tried to pull him over near the 6900 block of South Yale Avenue—about a block from the Hudson family home—but Balfour stopped the car and fled, according to court records.
Balfour was out on bail when a man saw Balfour breaking into his new Chevrolet Suburban on Nov. 29, 1998, and ran outside to stop him, court records show. Balfour, then 17, drove off with the man hanging from the roof rack.
As police followed, Balfour drove through alleys, front yards, through a police barricade and onto the Dan Ryan Expressway—all with the victim clinging to the vehicle, records indicate. He eventually crashed into a telephone pole and fled.
The victim suffered burns from fallen electrical wires as well as other injuries.
Balfour was sentenced to 7 years in prison after pleading guilty to attempted murder and car hijacking in September 1999. He was released in May 2006, returned to the neighborhood where he grew up and reconnected with Julia Hudson, one of the three Hudson siblings he had known while attending Yale Elementary School.
She was a single mother who drove a school bus, lived with her mother and depended on relatives to help care for Julian. Balfour was smitten with Julia Hudson, his mother said.
“He was in love with Julia,” Michele Balfour said. “And Julia loved him.”
The couple married in December 2006, the same month Julia’s sister Jennifer made her screen debut in “Dreamgirls.” The deeply religious Hudson clan, however, gave Balfour and his criminal record a wary welcome into the family, relatives said.
The newlyweds lived in the Hudson family’s large home, and there was frequent friction between Balfour and Donerson, Michele Balfour said. Donerson repeatedly kicked him out of the house, and he accused her of meddling in his marriage. (what kind of man has to live with his wifes mother?)
Balfour moved out of the Hudson home for good in May and told his mother recently that he did not want to reconcile with Julia Hudson. He told relatives he was moving on with his pregnant girlfriend.
Tribune reporter Emma Graves Fitzsimmons contributed to this report.

I agree that it is time to put an end to the glorification of thuggish behavior. It’s immature and destructive. Barak and Michelle Obama have raised the bar significantly for Black people are we must hold ourselves and each other accountable.
I am reserving judgment also until more evidence is produced. However, this man has way too many issues for his mom to be portraying him as the victim on national TV. She needs to sit back and shut up.

I am mad at that french roll. Excuse me for digressing,lol. There is definitely a lot more going here. I do feel for Julia and any mother who loses a child but she needs to reflect on her decision making at some point.

Well first off Jennifer Hudson doesn’t have any kids to watch around him. And if she did decide to have children that would be her choice and he is better than a thug in theory because he is educated and did something with his life i don’t give a damn he went on one reality show he was a lawyer before and he is a lawyer now. That is the difference between him and thug. A thug is low life who wants nothing but to sell drugs and make fast cash. If you don’t see the difference thats on you.

This is so true!!! But I guess we all go through the stage of wanting the cute guy, with a lil’ swag, a baby mama or two, no education….the list goes on! But AA women definitely should start letting dudes UPGRADE them instead of always scraping the bottom of the barrel for whats left (its usually scum). Get you a man who has a career, not a job, some investments that appreciate, not CARS(regardless of the type), a spiritual relationship with God, not just CME (Christmas, Mother’s day, and Easter), a LOVE for himself and others.
*drops mic, walks off stage….goes to bar for another round*

Which part was narrow-minded? The part where i said now she’s dating a lawyer? What part of that is narrow-minded its a FACT she IS dating a LAWYER. I don’t know where he is from i merely stated a fact she went from what she had to what she has now. I don’t give a damn about a person background. There is a difference between coming from the hood and being a thug with a thugs mentality. Maybe you skimmed my comment and that reason you were so clearly confused by what i said.

______________________________________________________________
No one knows what happened unless they were there. Hopefully the truth will come out soon because people are already throwing this guy under the bus based solely on his past. He has not been convicted, much less charged with anything. He has been in jail since friday and they still havent charged him yet??? Something isnt right about that. I am not defending his past, but who are we to judge anyone until we have been in their position. How can you just outright call someone evil? People always like to add their two cents to shit that has nothing to do with them and they are going by what the media reports…..I mean foreal people we might as well play telephone if we listen to what the media says. What mother would not defend her son if she honestly believed that he didnt do it, granted she should be quiet at this time, but people saying how they are going to hurt her for defending her child should shut the fuck up. How can you respond to violence with violence? I say let the police do their job, if the evidence shows he did it, they need to fry his ass. Also I want to comment on people saying how it doesnt matter that he got his ged and had a job. It does fucking matter, he could have sat in prison done nothing, got right back out and went to stealing cars again.

The media IS villifying her son, as though he’s never done anything productive and good in life. But no one has publicly questioned Julia’s decision to MARRY him and make him a role model for her son. She must not have thought he was so bad, huh? Now the GED and the job at Cosi may not be relevant, but neither is his “mile long rap sheet” unless you can place him at the scene of this here crime between the hours of 9 and 3. But the nature of the crime makes Jason’s potential drug selling all the more relevant. The baby mama who is now stating Balfour had something to do with it is also a woman who is willingly sleeping with a married man raw. No one considers she might be talking out of pure bitterness, but we dismiss Ms. Balfour as delusionl for thinking her son may be innocent? At the end of the day, it took the police 3 days to find a Suburban that some neighbors said was parked on the street- tags in place- at least since Friday. People are finally recognizing that it had to be more than one person- he can’t drive 2 cars at once. There’s a lot of accountability in this story, and far too much is resting on William Balfour without the connecting facts to support it.[/quote]
I think that her going on Nancy Grace was a huge mistake. Regardless of what she said, her son was more than likely involved in some way, shape, or form. No one other than speculators are saying that he is a SUSPECT. IMO I think he is still in custody because he is being protected. I think that the police were maybe using him, and thing spiraled out of control, and that poor kid some kind of way got involved. I do believe though that his mother should NOT have gone on the sow running her mouth, because she sounded a bit ignorant. She is defending her son against speculators not the media. Aside from Nancy Grace, the media is unbiased. We the spectators put in our little tidbits, and speculations and opinions, and she is defending him to US. She should just be standing by her son and family, and stay out of the media. Regardless of the validity of her points, she still won’t let her son be held accountable for PAST actions. This whole situation is just horrible, and I just pray that it gets resolved in a timely manor. If we ever know the extent of what happened, it’s gonna be more than we really wanted to hear. I feel that there is going to be a lot covered up in this case. But as I said, that’s just my opinion, and it’s not worth a red dime. Oh and his past IS relevant if he is going to be questioned about this, because it shows his character, and who he was involved with. Well I am getting off my soap box and going to pick my baby up from school, and thank the Lord above that I still have him, because life is way to short.

This woman got me soooo heated last night. Ugh!!! I understand her delusional azz didn’t want to admit that her son jsut may be the actual killer, but he does not have a clean rap sheet. She played the blame game. Even talked down about someone that is dead. THEN to top it off tried to make it seem like it’s ok for her IGNORANT son to have girlfriends while he is married by saying Julia has a boyfriend. Which I seriously DOUBT!!! She may seem gutter, hood or whatever, but why would she introduce her son to all these different me. His dumb azz wasn’t even his real father. SMDH!!!! Nancy went off on her and I was soooo happy.

So he was kicked out by the family, he wasnt with Julia anymore, the boy isnt his son, he was in jail for attempted murder, his alibi doesnt match up, The neighbors say he was making death threats, Julia said he threaten to hurt her son and we shouldnt say its him because????
I say GUILTY. I could be wrong, but I dont think so.

This woman is crazy , she shows no remorse for the family not even I sorry for this tragedy, I mean she’s really crazy and she sound like she’s proud that her son is a career criminal got his GED in the Pen , the Pen is not a place to go and get your education thank GOD that it’s offered but she’s speaking as if she sent him to the Penn instead of school, I have to stop now because I’m really getting pissed of and going way in left field with her dumbness and I can’t take dumbness. GOD Bless Jennifer and her family.
P.S. has anyone questioned Julia Hudson? maybe she can shed somemore light on what happen.
Peace and Blessings

Jennifer’s sister has serious problems to have hooked up with, and married a convicted felon. She sounds like she is insanely ignorant.
PLUS I can NOT understand her need to write on her myspace page at a time like this…after she lost her: son, mother, and brother???!? You are going to blog???!! And try to make yourself sound like a saint because it “is natural for you to love” that damn fool- a freakin’ gang member???
People die every day. What makes this particularly cruel is that
1.) a child was involved 2.)His mother could have probably prevented this shit is she had common sense.

That boy’s mother is an idiot who can’t accept responsibility 4 the type of child she raised. There is no sense in denying the facts, what she needs 2 do is issue an apology 2 J-Hud and her sister because her son had permanently ruined their holidays. I mean if he was locked up once 4 attempted murder, and then did this 2 people he should have cared about, chances are that he has killed, or at least tried 2 kill before and just didn’t get caught. What a shame that all she can do is defend him at a time when poor Julia had lost her mother brother and son. Poor Jen should be on cloud 9 with the way her career is finally taking off, instead she is planning a triple funeral when she sould be planning her dream wedding. It is really disgusting 2 hear that phone interview.

1)Nancy Grace cracks me up!!!
2) I totally agree with the following and will add that she is NOT helping her son’s case by coming to his defense.[quote comment="259755"]
I am reserving judgment also until more evidence is produced. However, this man has way too many issues for his mom to be portraying him as the victim on national TV. She needs to sit back and shut up.[/quote]
3) I think it’s sad that part of (probably only) reason the national media cares is because it involves the family of a celebrity. How long have they been looking for Caylee Anderson? How long did they look for ELizabeth Smart? Aren’t we still talking about Jon Benet Ramsey? If it wasn’t Jennifer Hudson’s family, to the national media it would have been just another bunch of dead ni**as.

I am a single woman who has been raising my son by myself for the last 8 years. I have watched the men I’ve allowed into his lives and he can count on one hand with three fingers the amount of men he’s seen even hug his mother. I’ve been blessed to have fallen in love with a person who has the characteristics that I would want my son to grow up and have to become positive and productive member of society. Not to say that I don’t think men who have been in prison can be rehabiliated I’m just not the women to do it. I don’t down Julia Hudson for loving who she loved but I just wouldn’t want a man who’s been to prison for attempted murder or car jacking to be the role model my son looks up too. Everytime I here about the Hudson family my heart goes out to Julia, because everyone is focusing on Jennifer…Jennifer mother Jennifer nephew, Jennifer brother.But this woman MAY have lost her baby and her mother and brother because of the choice she made in choosing the wrong life partner..

Nancy was a lawyer for years and has been doing these type of pieces for a good number of years, but his damn momma… who told her to say any damn thing on TV?! isn’t there a gag order on all involved to NOT say or give press statements to the media till all this is over and done with? she’s digging his grave (and good for her because she stupid as shit) but she’s not helping anyone, including herself look good.

I was so irritated that she would be putting the victim of the car theft out there as if he was wrong.I am seriously leaning toward I.Q test being required before having children.

So it’s everyone’s fault except her son’s? It was even the guy’s fault that threw himself on his own car to keep her son from stealing it? It was the fault of Jennifer’s brother who was selling out of the house (and that seems HIGHLY unlikely). When her son was picked up in June for drug possession, it was Julia’s fault cuz she planted it in the car because she was upset that he had moved on??

[quote comment="259752"]Jennifer Hudson family tragedy: Suspect William Balfour’s relatives, friends in disbelief
Get the latest from the Tribune Breaking News Center
See photos from the scene
By Stacy St. Clair and Deanese Williams-Harris | Tribune reporters
October 28, 2008
During his brief marriage to Julia Hudson, William Balfour seemed to embrace the role of stepdad.
He declared himself a “proud parent” on MySpace and decorated his page with photos of a smiling Julian King. The boy also is mentioned in a seven-line autobiography Balfour wrote for the social-networking site.
On their Englewood block, the two often could be seen walking to the park or enjoying barbecues on the front lawn. Balfour, 27, helped support his fledgling family with money he earned as a Cosi baker and frequently indulged his stepson with boys-only trips to Popeyes and McDonald’s, neighbors say.
Balfour’s affection seemed so genuine that friends and relatives struggle to reconcile the involved stepfather with the man authorities call a “person of interest” in the 7-year-old boy’s homicide. Authorities believe that Julian’s shooting death is linked to the Friday slayings of his grandmother Darnell Donerson and his uncle Jason Hudson.
“The guy they’re talking about is nothing like the guy I knew,” said neighbor Ante Moore. “I’m not saying he was a saint, but I do know that he was trying to turn his life around.”
Police named Balfour as a suspect in an Amber Alert released Friday. He currently is at Stateville Correctional Center in Joliet; authorities say he violated his parole by becoming a murder suspect.
Balfour’s criminal rap sheet dates back at least a decade. Court records show that Balfour was arrested in 1998 after police spotted him driving a stolen vehicle. They tried to pull him over near the 6900 block of South Yale Avenue—about a block from the Hudson family home—but Balfour stopped the car and fled, according to court records.
Balfour was out on bail when a man saw Balfour breaking into his new Chevrolet Suburban on Nov. 29, 1998, and ran outside to stop him, court records show. Balfour, then 17, drove off with the man hanging from the roof rack.
As police followed, Balfour drove through alleys, front yards, through a police barricade and onto the Dan Ryan Expressway—all with the victim clinging to the vehicle, records indicate. He eventually crashed into a telephone pole and fled.
The victim suffered burns from fallen electrical wires as well as other injuries.
Balfour was sentenced to 7 years in prison after pleading guilty to attempted murder and car hijacking in September 1999. He was released in May 2006, returned to the neighborhood where he grew up and reconnected with Julia Hudson, one of the three Hudson siblings he had known while attending Yale Elementary School.
She was a single mother who drove a school bus, lived with her mother and depended on relatives to help care for Julian. Balfour was smitten with Julia Hudson, his mother said.
“He was in love with Julia,” Michele Balfour said. “And Julia loved him.”
The couple married in December 2006, the same month Julia’s sister Jennifer made her screen debut in “Dreamgirls.” The deeply religious Hudson clan, however, gave Balfour and his criminal record a wary welcome into the family, relatives said.
The newlyweds lived in the Hudson family’s large home, and there was frequent friction between Balfour and Donerson, Michele Balfour said. Donerson repeatedly kicked him out of the house, and he accused her of meddling in his marriage. (what kind of man has to live with his wifes mother?)
Balfour moved out of the Hudson home for good in May and told his mother recently that he did not want to reconcile with Julia Hudson. He told relatives he was moving on with his pregnant girlfriend.
Tribune reporter Emma Graves Fitzsimmons contributed to this report.[/quote]
WOW. he got out of jail in May/06 Julia married him in Dec 06… All this is so CRAZY….they cant write a movie better than this….and this is REAL LIFE! Its all so SAD

I don’t like to make judgements so I’m taking in everything as the evidence presents itself. Jennifer is adored by all and yes we as the public want to see the killers brought to justice swifty, but lets not be so blindly ambitious in our efforts that the wrong person is convicted. The mother is doing what any mother who feels her son or daughter is innoscent, she will defend. However, she also contradicted herself along the way when defending her son that will reflect poorly on her son character. She said that her son was raised not be disrespectful, yet he stole a car and almost killer as a last ditch effort to get out. He has multiple women (girlfriends) including a wife he separated. Mrs. Julia has time to update her myspace page during a time of great distrought and also admit she likes to start a little shit if she gets bored. There are so many factors to consider. Balfour committed this crime when he was 16 years of age. There are so many factors to consider.

I bet that this whole thing is gang related. William Balfour’s mother is thinking from her womb and she might not be educated; but I think she knows that her son is not the only party involved.
He probably owed some people some money and the whole thing went botched.

Now what?! Telling you Jason getting shot last year is crazy and fishy. Now for them being all together in a gang is something new. WELL DAMN! Julia not only knew about William’s past but has a past herself. Where’s all the Julia’s defenders now? Rolling with crime catches up. I hope for Jenn’s sake she isn’t involved or knew about something going down or got the hint but avoided it.

This story is getting more sad by the day. Also breaking news is there was a gun found in the area where the truck and the babies body was found. Now hopefully we can get to the bottom of this. I feel for Jennifer. All she wanted was to have a better life!

I hope I am not making a false judgement and God forgive me if I am but I would not be suprised if the sister is not involved. Last week in my city we had a NON-crackhead daughter kill her mother over 2700 dollars. Everybody in family don’t feel the same about family no matter how much they smile in your face and say I love you.

I always try to be positive when I comment on the foolishness that is reported…but I can’t this time….Ms. Balfour sounds like a damn fool! Sometimes it’s best to keep quiet, you can do more harm by speaking on things you really on have second hand knowledge/information on. In terms of why the family still lived there….let us keep it funky!!! Jennifer has not come into enough money just yet to uproot and move her family, I’m sure if she had her sister wouldn’t still be driving buses for a living. At some point people need to realize that it doesn’t matter where the hell they lived, worked or partied…no one, absolutly no one deserves death at another’s hand!!! I don’t give a damn about who, what where, this is senseless. People need to realize that you can’t always choose your living situation and I’m quite sure if she could move them she would have. It took my mother in laws house to catch fire by intruders for her to move and she lived in a bad area. So maybe it was they didn’t want to move….no matter how much you try to take the hood out of people, some don’t want any part….there could be many reasons. I think the only focus should be why whom ever did this and who the hell did this bit**assness *ish, this where we definitely need the death penalty~

I just read on another site…that Jennifer Hudson wanted to move her mother out of that house, but the mother didnt want to go. But Jason and Julie said they would move instead, and Jennifer said no I aint buying y’all nothing, get a job.
I cant believe the mother didnt want to go, she should have left them damn kids in that house….then on the flip side Kanya West said Hollywood killed his mother….he Believe if he wouldnt have moved his mother to Hollywood, she would be alive today.

I’m hating the fact that so much of their family’s business is being exposed. Jennifer and her family are no different than any other family who’s members aren’t perfect. There are women in my family who’ve made bad choices when it comes to who they date and marry, however they never intentionally sought out for convicted felons or murderers! Not making excuses for what has taken place, but it could have been one of us! I just want those who are ignorant to Hudson’s and many others “unchosen” lifestyle to be mindful that we come from different backgrounds. Please don’t misinterpret my use of the word “ignorant”. Sometimes when we haven’t experienced certain situations within our time on earth, we tend to pass judgement on other’s decisions. You are not to blame for this, but you also have no right to speak in such negative manners when it’s obvious that these people are mourning!! Let’s just pray that both families are coping with this tradegy. God bless you all and I will keep praying for their sanity!!!

Another detail that was mentioned on the news and subsequently on this mornings Steve Harvey show was that the reports that a family member/ cousin initially found the body is false…actually Julia found the body at 3-3:30pm on Fri. and backed out of the house and called the cops. As I thought about it they never did reveal the supposed family member or cousin as it was initially reported. I believe without a doubtthat Julia knows soooo much more than she is willing to believe, and it is all going to come out. I don’t think she intended for her family to get killed, but she knows something.You heard it first from adowa.

Another site said this:
An even more horrifying fact has emerged in the case, as it has been learned that one of Julian King’s hands was also cut off, suggesting that he may have been being held for ransom.
The boy was also shot in the head, although it is not known if his hand was severed prior to, or after his death.
Smh..this explains the possible mutilation theory. This is just too much

O.K. I don’t have the time to read through hundreds of posts. But what I think is very interesting in our community, is that we haven’t questioned “Where is Jennifer’s father?” Truly. Why haven’t we questioned this? Are we so accustomed to our men being absent that we aren’t questioning this? Or maybe somewhere in the information about Jennifer it was stated that her father died. Maybe I missed that. And then in that case, my question doesn’t apply. But we have to be honest with ourselves. If Brittany or the Jonas Brothers lost their mothers, one of the first things we might look to the media to fill us in on, is what the father thought. Why aren’t we asking about Jennifer’s father? Even if her parents divorced, this is a time that a father would step up and make himself visible. Does anyone know where her father is - if he is alive?

I found the answer to my own question Jennifer’s father died in 1999. Phew! Just a shame. I am a proponent of two parent families. I just think it can make all the difference in the world. Sometimes your circumstances just can’t offer you the option of giving your child a 2 parent household. That is understood. But I do think that we, as a community, have become too accustomed to a “household” being head by a woman. I sort of think that Jennifer chose the Hollywood “ghetto” approach when choosing a mate. Same old choosing a man who won’t be around in 10 years. “Punk” is not a person who will be around beyond the highlights of the media. When that fades, he will be off with another woman - or man. He is using her. But she is making the same bad choices that so many of us - black females, make. That man is using her. I just feel soooo bad for her. Without her mom to ground her, what is going to happen. If nothing else comes from this, I hope that she will at least move beyond “Punk” and figure out that she can do bad by herself. WE AS AFRICAN AMERICAN WOMEN, HAVE GOT TO TAKE A STAND AND STOP TAKING ON ANY OLE MAN - JUST TO HAVE ONE. We can create lives for ourselves that don’t HAVE TO INCLUDE a man who cuts us off at the knees. I love black men, don’t get me wrong. But not all black men are stepping to us correct. If we don’t value ourselves, nobody will. If nothing else, PLEASE, let us as black women, view this tragedy as an example that we use in weeding through the men who will only cause trauma to our lives, our families and our children.

[quote comment="259329"]i listened to that clip this morning and his mother is a certified crack head! i have told my children from the day they were able to understand that i will have their back IF THEY are innocent but if they are guilty they have to stand alone. . they do a grown man time, don’t act like a baby when it’s time to face the music.
and i’m abso-damn-lutely beside myself that she would speak ill of the dead like that to have the first thing that come out her mouth “Jason was selling drugs” i so assholian it’s borderline retarded!
then to suggest that Julia planted drugs in her son’s car so he can get arrested was so stupid, i can’t believe she parted her lips to say that!
if julia did plant drugs (which i find unlikely) how did she know he was going to get pulled over by the police? come on now. .let’s be realistic!
your son was convicted of ATTEMPTED MURDER and now you wanna talk about his job. . beyoch go kick rocks. .somebody’s mama, brother and nephew are all dead and you want to talk ill of them and act like your son is innocent?[/quote]
Amen!!!! She’s trying to make him sound like he was an angel. That he would never hurt a living soul. So what was the attempted charge for? Cause he was trying to help an old lady cross the street? I think she’s buried her head so far in the sand it’s cutting off circulation to her brain.

For one I am not going to be one track mind in this and I do feel really bad that all of this has happened to Jennifer Hudsons family but I still would like to know where was Julia on Friday if she was off from work? which is what I read from another website. Why wasnt she at the scene of the crime? I cant judge from a mothers point of view on how I would react to this situation but from seeing her on television when she was speaking about it she didnt seem to distraught. But every one deals with pain differently so I wont look too much into that. One thing I will say is im not taking sides but I like to look at both sides of the story before I just start judging a situation. Another thing I feel the reason why the husband is not speaking much is because if this is drug related and gangs are involved, hes probably thinking he will be a snitch. Say he is innocent, if they release him there going to kill him too, thats what may be going through his mind if he is innocent. Especially if this has to do with money, drugs, and gangs. To sum it up who ever did this it will come to light sooner than later and I cant wait to see who ever did this get what they deserve.

you don’t talk about him getting his GED or him studying horticulture… and he wasn’t jacking a car. he as starting it and the guy he was STEALING IT FROM reached in and grabbed my car. So my son hit the gas and drove at high speeds taking the guy who’s car he was stealing for a high speed chase—
his momma said this crap on national TV. oh it’s ok to jack a car but the other guy choked my son so he had the right to go speeding with the guy latched on the car? and yay he got his GED, what you want a damn cookie for him? a lot of brothers locked up get their GED but they don’t turn around and murder a family, they better themselves and their families THEY LOVE. this guy didn’t love anyone, he had two other women he was laying with and his momma knew it and was glorifying it like it won’t a big deal that the weekend her son in law,grandchild and williams’ mother in law were murdered that he was off getting some from a side piece.
throw him under the jail with Bubba and Ray Ray. This is revolting, and I hope that when he’s finally arrested and charged she’s on TV eating her damn words. Shit if I knew that my brother had murdered someone or was suspected and was creeping the way he was, I’d call the cops on him. Defend those that are wrongfully charged and you KNOW IT and can prove it, but when they’re wrong and you’re trying to cover for them you’ll get dragged down with them.

This whole Jennifer Hudson story is very tragic. I could not image the pain the family is feeling all I can do is pray that the truth will be discovered. Nancy Grace held her own in that interview as usual. Balfour’s mom sounded like a fool, if I were her I would just close my mouth because the more she speaks the more ignorant she sounds.
This makes me ill. I feel more parents need to love,nurture and raise their children and teach them right from wrong. If we teach our kids right from wrong and show them how bad choices can affect their lives that would make a world of a difference. If the news is correct all the children Balfour’s mom have led wreckless lifestyles.

This is just a shame. I cannot stand ignorant people, and it’s people like this that give us (Black Americans) a bad name. She just rattled on about “her son” and contradicted herself. I believe even if he is found guilty of this horrific act she will still be talking about “my son” didn’t do this. Stupidity!!

Man, you gotta watch who you bring to the house…[/quote]
you could say that again that’s why so many chicks right on here are like they don’t want a man, they don’t want kids… and they say i’m so jaded lol. but no one could ever expect this, just like when women bring men into thier kids life and dude ends up molesting the kids… you feel bad but what are these moms supposed to do stay single their whole life?[/quote]
That why you fuckin think when you spread your damned legs! Most of these knuckle heads ain’t about nuthin noway, so why you givin up the goodies having a kid by this one and the other, and then wonder why life has passed your ass by and oh by the way, I’m gonna get my tubes ties and not have no more kids and get me another man who will then come in and mess up your life and your kids life. When you have kids, guess what ladies? THEY come fuckin first. If you got to have some dick, then go buy one from the toy store. If someone wants to come into your life and be good to you, go talk to his family and friends, and ex’s and find out what the hell you are getting yourself into. Anyway….I’m finished. Love your kids enough to keep your legs closed until you know for sure and keep them niggas out of your house!

[quote comment="259545"]I guess I’m the only one who thinks that Ms. Balfour made some potentially valid points. The media IS villifying her son, as though he’s never done anything productive and good in life. But no one has publicly questioned Julia’s decision to MARRY him and make him a role model for her son. She must not have thought he was so bad, huh? Now the GED and the job at Cosi may not be relevant, but neither is his “mile long rap sheet” unless you can place him at the scene of this here crime between the hours of 9 and 3. But the nature of the crime makes Jason’s potential drug selling all the more relevant. The baby mama who is now stating Balfour had something to do with it is also a woman who is willingly sleeping with a married man raw. No one considers she might be talking out of pure bitterness, but we dismiss Ms. Balfour as delusionl for thinking her son may be innocent? At the end of the day, it took the police 3 days to find a Suburban that some neighbors said was parked on the street- tags in place- at least since Friday. People are finally recognizing that it had to be more than one person- he can’t drive 2 cars at once. There’s a lot of accountability in this story, and far too much is resting on William Balfour without the connecting facts to support it.[/quote]
I agree with you a 110% Mrs. Balfour was the first to mention Jason selling drugs…and now the story is unfolding

I agree …..its not about your occupation but instead your purpose and character in life. But accordingly to “KC” getting a lawyer is a move up. THUGS come in all types of packages (doctors, lawyers, athletes, teachers, police, judges)…just b/c you have a job doesn’t mean your attitude or ambitions are any better than the “common person”.

acting like he is such a saint! what killed me was when she mentioned that he doesnt hurt anybody. um hello?
he violated his parole from attempted murder!! give me a break lady!!! either your in serious denial or you think your words are going to give the public a different opinion about him.
bottom line, he is a loser and deserves to rot in jail for the rest of his life!!
What a disgraceful woman, she seems so proud that her tramp of a son is in and out of jail and has multiple girlfriends while he is still married!!
He deserves to die slow!!!!!!!

here is an idea, hey black men!!! yoohoo!!!
Why dont you go to school and finish your education, get a job…stay out of trouble and maintain your relationships and stop having children out of wedlock?
it takes two to tango and the women shouldnt have to be the sole blame!

That newswoman wasn’t playing. For a second there I thought she was about throw in a few snaps and a neck roll. I was like “get it!”
Seriously though, Balfour’s mother couldn’t BE more delusional. Chick had some kind of “explanation” for every wrong this foo committed. She needs to sit her ass down and stop trying to paint her son as the victim here.

I don’t understand why people are hating on this lady because she is defending her son. Nobody was there, no one knows the intricate details of what went on, all we are getting is from the media and they are getting their information from the cops - which is only one side.
None of us know what we would do if we were in that situation. Like I always said, people want an excuse to hate, to blame somebody without investigating or having accurate information. William Balfour has not even been charged yet. Someone having a criminal past does not make them a murderer.
I am not making excuses, but people seriously need to wake up and see there is ALWAYS more than one side. Blacks have historically thought that police officers were crooked, why would they not think that now? If it is him, then he deserves whatever he gets, but UNTIL any of us learn what really happened (at least what they say); maybe we should be the ones to shut up and not pretend to be Sherlock Holmes Rejects.

I feel that it is very insensitive to Jennifer to report on her Mother and Brother’s drug convictions, at this time. She is grieving and people are talking about her Mom using crack, IN THE PAST. I would expect it of TMZ, but not here. Kinda messed up.

Balfour’s mother is the reason why he is sitting in jail right now. She has an excuse for everything. She raised a fool because she is a fool.
To all my brothas’ out there LISTEN UP…when you leave a woman to raise YOUR male child, this is how they turn out. IGNORANT! A woman cannot teach a little boy how to be a man. We need THE MEN in our community to step up and take care of their responsibilities.

[quote comment="259264"]I get really irritated by the mother of Balfour. She really just needs to not say anything. Clearly he had something to do with this tragedy. Instead of just stepping back to see what happens, she keeps speaking her ignorance. I know a mother wants to NOT believe that a child that came from her could be so hanous. But the fact is that he has a consistent record of being evil. My heart goes to Jennifer and her family. It’s enough that they have to deal with this, but the medias coverage of the nonsense statements of the evil dudes mother, must add insult to injury.[/quote]
Nail —> Head
She is a sorry excuse for a woman and I refuse to listen to anything she has to say. She was probably a sorry ass mother too, coddling and defending him. I’m REAL sick of women defending their sorry ass sons and sorry ass romantic partners.
