The Oscar-winning actress from Dreamgirls and American Idol alum Jennifer Hudson's mother and brother were two victims of a fatal shooting in Chicago, the actress's publicist says. Both her family members have died.
"We can confirm that there is an ongoing investigation concerning the deaths of Jennifer Hudson's mother, Darnell Donerson, and her brother, Jason Hudson," rep Lisa Kasteler tells PEOPLE. "No further comment will be made and the family has asked that their privacy be respected at this difficult time."
The victims' bodies were found by officers Friday in a South Side home listed in the name of Hudson's mother, and police say the shooting appeared to be related to a domestic disturbance.
Hudson's nephew Julian King was kidnapped – the Oscar winner's sister Julia made an impassioned plea for her son's return. "I don't care who you are, just let the baby go," Julia Hudson said in a press conference held at the Pleasant Gift Missionary Baptist Church on Saturday. "I just want my son. He don't deserve this." The 7 year-old boy is still missing.
