The Search For Jennifer Hudson's Nephew Continues

The tragic murders of Oscar winner and American Idol alum, Jennifer Hudson's mother and brother are being compounded by the search for Hudson's still missing nephew.  According to CNN:

Police issued an Amber Alert for Julian and asked people to look out for a 1994 white Chevrolet Suburban with Illinois license plate X584859.

Julian is described as being 4-feet-11 and 130 pounds. He was wearing a striped brown polo shirt and khaki pants when last seen, authorities said in the Amber Alert.

The FBI was brought in as a precaution because it would be possible to cross state lines in the amount of time the boy has been missing, which would make any abduction a federal crime, he said.

This is an awful tragedy to happen to anyone but when it happens to someone like Jennifer Hudson, who so many of us have gotten to know and rooted for in the past, it's just very, very sad. My thoughts got out to Jennifer and I hope her nephew is found safe and sound very soon.
