Jennifer Hudson spoke at the murder trial testifying against the man who in 2008 killed her mother, brother and nephew.
William Balfour has pleaded not guilty to three counts of first degree murder. He is accused of shooting Jennifer’s mother in the living room, then Jason Hudson, her brother as he lay in bed, then leaving with Jennifer’s nephew Julian and shooting him in the head as he lay behind a front seat of a car.
Julia testified for two hours yesterday at the trial. Balfour who was her estranged husband became jealous after Julia went with Jennifer to Japan to promote her film Dreamgirls. Jennifer then took to the stand.
“We didn’t like the way he treated [Julia], and I didn’t like the way he treated my nephew,” explained Hudson.
“It was always me and my Tugga Bear. That’s what I called him,” said Hudson of her nephew Julian. Hudson reportedly had to choke back tears during her testimony.
