Julia Hudson: I Just Want My Son Back

46. You know, last night I was wondering why she was on her myspace page and I thought it was a little suspicious but it occured to me today that someone could possibly try to leave her a message about her son there. You never know. People use myspace for everything nowadays.

She could possibly be looking for clues there. It's a stretch but it could be the reason she is checking it.

47. It's not even worth trying to explain things to some people. Weight issues as a sign of low self-esteem? There are other factors. Plus, did anyone ever think that the reason she didn't report him might have had to do with fear of the very situation that has now occured?

49. I am the mother of a six-year old boy and can only imagine the hell this mother is going through.
I sincerely hope that he is returned to her very soon, safe and sound.

50. Julia is a hefer - I wouldn't do her unless she is the sister of a super star... Boy, just don't know how that one gets laid at all and her myspace says her favorite sport is "sex" REALLY?! I think Flex may have gotten lost a few times under that.

RIP Mrs. Hudson and Jason.

51. I pray that God Almighty release Peace to this mourning Family...But, something just ain't right with this terrible situation......TOO many unexplained questions, such as, why wasn't a seven year old in school ?? Could he have been a key witness in all of this??? If neighbors heard shots 4-6 hrs prior to the discovery, wouldn't that give the accused plenty of time to cover their tracks??? The possibilities of the child being alive is slim to none......


Father God in the name of Jesus, "Break The Silence" so the family, friends & supporters can have closure!!!-----amen

54. I have to say, to POSTER #30, you are dead on. I was thinking the same thing. If the shooting happened at 11AM? Why wasn't this child in school?

Something doesn't add up here. Aside from the fact that in an ENTIRE NEIGHBORHOOD, there were several people who heard these gunshots (the shooter was standing outside in front of the front door when he fired the first shot by the way), and NO ONE CALLED POLICE. The shooter is said to have fired between 4-6 shots, based on the number of shell casings found at the crime scene.

The 11AM time is a guesstimate. Mainly because all of the neighbors (who are out there when the cameras come to get on TV) couldn't get involved enough to call the police to help out one of their neighbors.

The police likely would have caught the shooter and issued an Amber Alert immediately if someone had just gotten involved.

55. The press conference would have been more effective if Julia would have made her plea for the safe return of her child and not answer any more questions. This is no time to be a media pig.

56. THIS IS 2008. I hope by now everyone knows if you do not eat the right foods, or intake high calorie and over processed foods and not exercise, two things will surely happen - you will gain weight and have health problems. If you consciously know this, like everyone in America should be now, and continue to do so , you obviously do not have a healthy self-esteem. The obesity rate in this country is rising each year. OBVIOUSLY almost all of us have lower self-esteems.

Thus, my point, as women, especially black women, and society as a whole, we've gotta do better!

Now all ya'll from the church off over there on the corner can come in here and write about your prayer wishes - however, PRAYER is not stopping the cycle of violence IF WE KEEP REPEATING THE SAME PATTERNS. You can pray until you are blue in the face, but if you don't make good LIFE decisions, don't call on Jesus and run cryin to the alter on Sunday when you've been sinning Monday thru Saturday.

My hope is for two things: That they do find the little boy safe and unharmed.

And that at least ONE WOMAN read and LEARN from this tragedy, and decide that her and her child(ren) deserve better, and kick that hood rat no-good, no working, 2 strike having man out of her life because she realizes that she and her children can DO BETTER!


Now all ya'll church folk can keep on with ya prayin' and enabling these single mothers to continue these cycles all ya want...

but SOMEONE needs to tell these women the TRUTH!

58. In Chicago, there was no school for the sudents on Friday because it was a professional development day for teachers. This would explain why Julian was not in school Friday

59. Prior to visiting myspace Julia had a list of her top 10 friends. Flex or William Balfour was number 2. In a question asking "who is most likely to go to jail?" Julie's reply was #2. If she knew this why would a mother expose her son to a criminal, convited criminal?! That is not a responsible parents behaviour, you're suppose to protect them from that junk.

On a side note. Although many people commit crimes and some fall off the bandwagon, at times they REALLY want to change. So, I am hoping the cops are not just pinning it on him because of his previous. Sometimes the cops are the worst at investigating and are SOOOOOOO quick to say guilty before anything has been said. I just hope there is a couple of decent cops out there in chicago working the case properly and not just passing judgement. Unfortunately, the system is brutal and you are guilty before proven innocent. To me Flex (regardless of his past) is innocent until proven otherwise.

Where is that SUV? I am hoping it wasn't ditched in a lake and Julian isn't in it. I am hoping he is hiding somewhere scared, and hoping that nobody hurts him. I am hoping her ran away in time, and is hiding in a shack somewhere waiting to be rescued.

Please people stop turning this into a circus and think about who might be reading this. I know people tend to think things are funny but this is no laughing matter people are hurting.

60. Oh drat! I scrolled down and had my brain polluted with the comments AGAIN! When will I learn?

I will never understand why these sites open up for comments because it just almost never leads to something good, or worth reading. Trolls and idiots do their best to show their ignorance when given a chance, and this article is no exception.

The woman's son is missing, her family members murdered - and the comments tickle my gag reflex.
