Baflour Transferred

By Marcus Gilmer in News on Jan 27, 2009 7:10PM

William Balfour, the man accused of killing three family members or actress/singer Jennifer Hudson - including seven-year-old Julian King - has been moved from Stateville Correctional Center near Joliet to Cook County Jail. The request was made by his lawyer so it would be easier to consult with Balfour and a judge approved. However, Balfour will be subject to the same 10-day limit the Cook County Jail imposes on holding all parole violators, which means Balfour could soon wind up back at SCC.
