Funeral held for Hudson family
A funeral was held yesterday for the slain victims in in the Hudson murder case.
The three victims, Darnell Hudson Donerson, 57, Jason Hudson, 29 and Julian King, 7, were buried in Chicago. A memorial was held at the Pleasant Gift Memorial Baptist Church. The tragedy tore apart a loving family and stunned a community and the world.
Jennifer Hudson, an American Idol contestant and Oscar winner, seems to be the one holding the family together. She is a strong woman who is experiencing the most tragic event of her life. I cannot imagine how she and her family must feel and what they must be going through.
William Balfour, 27, has been arrested and is been held in suspicion of all three murders. Balfour is the estranged husband of Jennifer’s sister, Julia. What causes someone to resort to murder? I seriously don’t understand. Do some people not comprehend the consequences of going too far or are they simply evil? I don’t know.
What a tragedy. My prayers are with this family at this time.
