Hudson's sister opens up on MySpace

CHICAGO, Oct. 28 (UPI) -- Jennifer Hudson's sister Julia talks about the death of her "innocent baby," 7-year-old Julian King, in a MySpace posting, Usmagazine.com reported.

Julia Hudson's son, mother and brother were recently shot to death in Chicago. Police are talking to her estranged husband about the slayings and he is being held on an alleged parole violation, but he has not been charged in the Hudson family shootings.

"Now because I chose to do what was natural to me and love someone, it cost me my beautiful family," Usmagazine.com said she wrote in the MySpace posting. "It cost me my beautiful, loving, supporting mother Darnell, my true blue baby brother Jason -- I love you baby -- and last but not never least, my only son Julian, my innocent baby ... (Julian's) soul is at ease. I take comfort in knowing that Julian is with my mother and my brother and most of all the Lord, and now he's my angel, he's protecting me."

Julia and Jennifer were among those who identified Julian's body Monday afternoon. The Cook County Medical Examiner's office ruled his death a homicide Tuesday and said he died of multiple gunshot wounds.
