UPDATE: Jennifer Hudson's Mother and Brother Fatally Shot
Friday October 24, 2008
![]() Jim Spellman/WireImage.com Jennifer Hudson's mother and brother were found shot and killed in her Chicago home Friday afternoon. "We can confirm that there is an ongoing investigation concerning the deaths of Jennifer Hudson's mother, Darnell Donerson, and her brother, Jason Hudson," a rep for the Academy Award-winning actress tells Usmagazine.com. "No further comment will be made and the family has asked that their privacy be respected at this difficult time." A spokesman for the Chicago Police Department tells Us they arrived to Donerson's home in the South Side of the city at 2:44 p.m. Friday. "Officers responded to a call of two people found unresponsive," Chicago Police Department spokesman John Mirabelli tells Us. "They discovered a male and a 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 Mirabelli would not confirm details of the shooting, but TMZ.com reports a cousin who lives nearby discovered the bodies. Police spokeswoman Monique Bond said the deaths appeared to be the 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 my mommy DARNELL AKA 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 JHUD’s, my big bro and sis JASON and JULIA, I love you so much. Thank you both for rooting me on and supporting me like nobody else. Also for 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 Us. "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."
