God, I was hoping it wouldn’t end like this: Authorities have found the body of a 7-year-old African-American child in a White Suburban that was owned by Jennifer Hudson’s late brother. The SUV was believed to have been stolen by William Balfour and was reportedly the center of the domestic dispute that ended in the fatal shooting of Jason Hudson and his mother. TMZ reports:
The body was found inside a 1994 white Chevy Suburban. It is the same SUV owned by Jason Hudson, the murdered brother of Jennifer. Before his arrest, cops were looking for William Balfour, the suspect and estranged husband of Jennifer’s sister. The license plate of the Suburban matches Jason’s SUV.
The SUV was found a few miles from the area where cops arrested Balfour.
The SUV is now being towed from the scene. Unclear if the body is still at the scene. No ID so far.
Neighbors say the vehicle has been parked there since Saturday. Balfour was arrested Friday night.
The SUV has been towed with the body still inside the vehicle. The SUV is now at a police garage in Chicago.
I don’t want to get all talk radio on you guys, but I seriously hope they figure out who did this and throw the book at him. And by book I mean the electric chair. You have to have no fucking soul to kill a child. What the hell did he do to you? Just a terrible ending to a terrible series of events.
The Superficial’s deepest, heartfelt condolences to the family of Jennifer Hudson.
UPDATE: Julian King’s Amber Alert has been called off, according to TMZ. Not good.

Oh, but they’ll get a trial on the taxpayer’s dime, and there will be endless discussions about THEIR rights…blah blah blah blah blah, and in the meantime a little boy and his grandmother and uncle are dead.
Fuck it, shoot ‘em down on the spot. Take them out of society. They don’t deserve shit.
g | October 27, 2008 at 10:31 am
Truly, is there any punishment other than death for this demon?
bootlips | October 27, 2008 at 10:31 am
Blacks glorify thug behavior. The community embraces it and hates any cop that tries to stop it. In the end, we should give blacks 4 states for just themselves and let them live like they were meant to live.
friendlyfires | October 27, 2008 at 10:34 am
No death penalty in Illinois, so I hope they torture the guilty SOB everyday for sixty friggin’ years. Every conceivable, unconstitutional, Abu-Gay-rab, Gitmo, Polish Concentration Camp torture they can dish out. If he starts dyin’ revive his ass, just so he can serve out his full tortuous sentence. Oh,and make sure he serves his sentence in the Northern Marianas, best unregulated US dependency, no labor law, no human rights law, no using prisoners as male prostitutes law.

this is a really sad world we live in.
may jason rest in peace.

#9 is there really any need for that comment? people like you really make me laugh..
your stupidity is astounding!
twosixs | October 27, 2008 at 10:38 am
Illinois does have the death penalty. Im not for it myself, but I am pretty sure this guy deserves a nice long fry.

“Special place in hell.”
daharia | October 27, 2008 at 10:42 am
What justice will they get from him being killed anyway? I’d prefer he lived a long horrible life rotting in a jail cell. Thats all he deserves now. Death would be the easy way out for him imo.
noreason | October 27, 2008 at 10:42 am
holy fuck that is sad
cowcat | October 27, 2008 at 10:43 am
Shame on you, #9. You are a heartless freak.
Turbo | October 27, 2008 at 10:45 am
Sure, this sucks, but it happens every day all over the world. Why is it such a special tragedy because one party is famous?
wrong time | October 27, 2008 at 10:45 am
I share the anger and horror and grief of many others. Condolences to the family. But I don’t think this is a time to discuss about death penalty. It’s a time to pray for an innocent child, for a destroyed family. We can discuss later, and as usual, we will discuss heatedly and prolonged. But not now. Too horrible not to stand united in shock.
(Just try to ignore racist fools like #9. For theories like his, no life on earth is long enough.)
tayla | October 27, 2008 at 10:49 am
thoughts and prayers to the family.
shame on you, #9.
Kate | October 27, 2008 at 10:50 am
Now, I’m not a supporter of the death penalty, but I’m sure has hell not opposed to daily torture for the next 60 years of this son of a bitch’s life. My thoughts and prayers are with the Hudson family right now as well as their 3 family members who were robbed of their lives.
Mary | October 27, 2008 at 10:50 am
Anyone who brings a comment like 9′s at this point is just looking for Internet Attenshun. Ignore the trolls in a post like this because they’re not worth it. 9 made ONE good point: Three people are still dead.
Frank Rizzo | October 27, 2008 at 10:50 am
#9 Save that for the next Klan meeting you dick. Its amazing that even when we are presented with a story that should bring everyone together, there are still pathetic, sad wastes of human DNA that manage to say something idiotic like that. May God have mercy on you.
The story itself is incredibly sad, and any words I have will only trivialize the situation.
Kaboom | October 27, 2008 at 10:51 am
Nobody said it’s thooper thad because the kid’s aunt is famous, #19. Well, you did, sorta, but the rest of us are just disgusted that another child has been murdered.
Your piehole…….shut it.
Grim Reaper | October 27, 2008 at 10:54 am
Electric chair? Nah. Give me a ball peen hammer and leave me alone with him for a few hours. Then let a few hungry pit bulls in to clean up the mess.

First off #9 you are a sad person and shame on you. I’d like to send all ppl like you to go live in… let’s say Alaska.
I was hoping this story would have something go right like finding the boy alive. My heart goes out to Jennifer Hudson and I hope you are able to heal someday from all this pain and sadness. I can’t even imagine losing so many family members in a horrible way.
LIz | October 27, 2008 at 10:55 am
24 said everything I was thinking except that people like #9 just make me embarrassed to be white, sometimes. The rest of the time I’m trying to function from Love versus Fear.
Many many condolences and much love to the Hudson family; I cannot imagine the pain she’s experiencing at this moment.
Victoria | October 27, 2008 at 10:55 am
@ 19
Why is your comment even necessary? It’s times like these where you should STFU if you have nothing considerate to say. And writing “sure, this sucks…BUT” when we’re discussing the senseless killing of ANY child makes you a grade A douche.
Gerald_Tarrant | October 27, 2008 at 10:56 am
Damn, there goes my theory that Madonna kidnapped the boy under the assumption that he was from Malawe.

Crystal | October 27, 2008 at 11:04 am
I don’t believe it is bad to bring a this to attention ‘just’ because his aunt is a celebrity. I think it helps us to relate and we put ourselves in the situation. Maybe Jenniffer will end up being a role model with how she handles the situation in the public’s eye. I am so sad for the little boy, god bless his sole. Thoughts and prayers go out to the family.
Bigheadmike | October 27, 2008 at 11:04 am
Sad… Terrible terrible thing… A child..
Susan Cultice | October 27, 2008 at 11:07 am
wow. sad.
hope they find the guy. then i hope he dies a terrible death, a slow, terrible death.
Racer X | October 27, 2008 at 11:08 am
That’s fucked up.

woodhorse | October 27, 2008 at 11:10 am
my prayers for this poor family. Is there any punishment harsh enough to make up for what that little 7 year old went through? It is said that sinking to the killers’ level to wish for torture won’t bring that little boy back but if we stake thekiller out on an ant hill, won’t that deter another murderer? Oh yeah, the ball gag, I forgot the ball gag. Actually I am not cut out for determinations such as this. I vote send him to some professionals that are already serving time.
venomhed | October 27, 2008 at 11:12 am
“electric chair. You have to have no fucking soul to kill a child.”
Hahaha, thanks to America’s RELIGIOUS FOOLS beautiful things like Capital Punishment have been slowed down to a crawl or non existent.
Blame god for everything good and bad. Blame god for letting this child get killed. Blame god for a screwed up world.
Because god is man made and a total piece of dog shit.
amanda | October 27, 2008 at 11:13 am

#39 = Asinine. Ever heard of Texas? Open a textbook, you know, any time you like.
HoboCode | October 27, 2008 at 11:19 am
Dude. Is there a moderator here? Delete some of these racist comments. I’m appalled. And this person doesn’t need to be executed they need to be locked up and given psychiatric care. Got that #7, you piece of shit? It would cost the taxpayers MORE in litigation to excute them anyway.
HoboCode | October 27, 2008 at 11:22 am
Incidentally, you know the last time Great Britain executed someone? 1964 people. 1964! That’s how ass backwards this country is.
bootlips | October 27, 2008 at 11:26 am
Blacks have made it impossible to imprison black criminals because the community cries racism every time one of the thugs is put in jail. The black community always claims that blacks are jailed for things that whites wouldn’t be jailed for. So, in order to please the monkeys, the thugs get a slap on the wrist and are allowed to rape, murder, assault, and steal, as much as they want. This is why humans are forced to leave their neighborhoods when black culture shits all over it.
Tamara | October 27, 2008 at 11:29 am
#9 – Not only black people commit crimes. People of different backgrounds all over commit crimes and do really stupid things. That was one rascist comment. Shame on you.
FRIST!!! | October 27, 2008 at 11:29 am
I haven’t been following this story, in fact I just turned on the fish this morning and am trying to catch up. All I have to say is some of you people on here are sick, and that goes for my troll as well. Fuck you!!
RIP little dude..
Kaboom! | October 27, 2008 at 11:31 am
Why is #7 a piece of shit, HoboCode? Jrz said to shoot the fuckers on site, not go through a lenghty trial.
Meh…whatever, you’re obviously a fuck up….you think the animals who executed a child should live and go to a psych hospital, as if they can be “cured.”
karatekachick | October 27, 2008 at 11:37 am
#19,
Here the thing, we KNOW about this one, it is publicised because his Aunt is in the public spotlight.
DUH, who in their right mind would list every single death in the world and discuss it?? And just because no one is discussing it here does not mean they don’t care……………….. People can discuss one particular subject
without bringing every incident of the same subject into the discussion.
That makes no sense. Shall we discuss the child who died here in town because of a bottle cap a month ago??? ANYONE??? Nope, probably not, but it was topic for discussion on the local boards.
My sincere prayers go to the family and friends of this family. SO sad, a child is an innocent, no matter what! I am sorry about the adults too, it is so senseless.
