We’re sad to continue the story of Jennifer Hudson’s family tragedy with this terrible twist: Jennifer Hudson’s missing nephew Julian King, for whom an Amber Alert had been issued and a $100,000 reward had been posted by the singer/actress, was found dead in the SUV included in the Amber Alert earlier today.

This follows the shooting of her mother and brother on Friday, after which Julian disappeared.

Crowds are flocking to the Hudson family home with tokens of affection, respect, and mourning. Even Barack Obama issued a statement of support for Jennifer & her family in this difficult time. We lend our voice to theirs in sympathy.
