William Balfour's mom, Michele Davis-Balfour, refuses to believe he had a part in yesterday's double murder, saying, "Out of no means did my son do this. This heinous crime to this family is unbelievable. It's unbearable."
Cops don't seem to have her same sentiment, as William is the prime suspect for the murders of Jennifer Hudson's mother and brother, and is currently being held by Chicago police.
Michele went on to voice her concern for Hudson's missing nephew Julian King to CNN affilitate WLS: "Whoever has Jennifer Hudson's nephew or Julia Balfour's son, please, I'm begging you, me and my family are begging you to return that son."
