Celebrity Justice
Hudson Murders - "Trouble in the Marriage"

The hunt for Jennifer Hudson's 7-year-old nephew continues to intensify. And we're told the operating theory among Chicago detectives is an "ongoing domestic dispute" between the suspect, William Balfour, and his estranged wife, Julia Hudson.

Chicago cops would not be more specific, other than to tells us there is an "underlying domestic aspect" to the investigation ... that there was "trouble in the marriage."

We're told cops continue to interview people, but no one other than Balfour is in custody. As for Balfour, so far no charges have been filed.

Chicago cops are now using flyers with Julian King's pic to find the missing boy.

The boy hasn't been seen since the bodies of Hudson's mother and brother were found Friday in her home in the South side of Chicago. The two had been shot to death.

The police will be handing out the flyers today all over Chicago, particularly on the South side.

32. Think A Little

How do you know what JHud's finances are? By the way, she's made 3 movies and was in a broadway show before winning an oscar. One of the first thing's people do when they make it big is to buy a house. And buying her mother a house is not everyone in here extended family. You don't know jack about JHud's money.

33. Yep, typical 'hood behavior. Not really newsworthy on a national level unless a celebrity is somehow involved. Just everyday life in America, folks.

35. I feel that a missing child is always far more worthy of attention than Supermodel: Good Genes or Good Docs. It just happens that this missing child is related to a celebrity and I thank TMZ for getting the word out there to everyone. If you do not think it is news worthy then why did you feel the need to click the comment button and get involved? If you do not care about a missing child, then mercy on your soul.

This is a 7 year old child we are talking about - it should not matter who is aunt is or the color of his skin. He is still missing and I pray for his safe return to his family. (Although, I will say that I hope he stays with other family with the ability to see his mother in a supervised situation since she is now known to not make very good choices)

Black, white, green, blue, purple - it doesn't matter the color of your skin, a child is a child - a human life is a human life.

I pray for Julians safe return to his family.

37. This is not a "hood" thing. OJ Simpson got away with double murder and you all know it and now he is paying for it.Crime is rampant everywhere and if OJ had not gotten away with it alot less people would have the mindset of "I can get away with murder".You reep what you sew and so shall you reap.All the Rap and Gansta persona have put this country into a mindset of violence.Folks get filthy rich of you by saying "Kill em" And still using the N word and Bitches and hoes.You degrade yourselves so bad.There was one man whom was Hilter's propagands minister Josef Goebbles who said, "if you tell a lie enough times it becomes the truth".

38. I thought the couple were not married, that they shared a son but weren't married? Serves me right for reading serious news on TMZ.

40. Boy, EVERY time a famous black person is attached in any way to a multiple homice, drug runnin, arson, rape, gangs, drive-by shootings, theft, murder, or simply slappin their woman around it gets plastered all over the news. Every week there is one or more incidents the media jumps all over, but we NEVER hear about it at all when it involves a famous white person. Just gets swept under the rug. I'M TIRED OF THE DOUBLE STANDARD.

41. And as far as Jennifer not getting her family out of the hood, well if she had put them up in a fancy mansion you would have smack to say about that too, like the family are gold diggers and using her and crap like that.So STFU about it, Jennifer is very real and very much in pain leave her alone to grieve.

42. This is not about black and white. This is now about a missing child - a 7 year old boy that has been missing for over 48 hours. There are SO many missing children out there - from all walks of life. I think too much attention is being focused on race, and celebrity rather than just finding and praying for this missing 7 year old boy. HE is what it is all about.

43. Jennifer played her self, just like Miss New York said............Jennifer Got her Stardom and left them poor people (her Mom) behind....she is not a Man she is a woman and she outta be ashamed of her self.

44. Just an FYI, the white population is dwindeling and the black pop is rising so there are more of yaal than of us so get used to it.White people do bad things too, don't get me wrong but it is not like it used to be anymore, blacks are getting more recognition now that ever so make sure you black folks are doing good things, Like Obama, and not evil things like this perp just did and you will get glory too.White people are now the minority, happy now!!!And anything involving children gets my attention because they are the most innocent and I have a bad premonition about little Julian. Why don't youstop clicking and strart helping to find this boy!!

45. Why does everyone get so damned excited everytime a child is involved. Even a little newborn baby is just 18 years away from being another **shole.
