Chicago Police have arrested William Balfour on charges of murder, for the killings of the mother, brother, and nephew of American Idol finalist, Jennifer Hudson.
Balfour was currently being held in custody for a parole violation, but received a transfer today to Chicago police custody after they served him with a warrant.
Evidence was brought forward last month in a closed hearing linking the weapon used in the October 24th murders to a weapon owned by Balfour.
