hudson112011_06_230.jpgJennifer Hudson stepped out of a Chicago courtroom early on Wednesday after another witness displayed gruesome photos of one of her murdered family members.

The Grammy winning singer exited when a retired chief medical examiner identified pictures showing the gunshot wounds to the head of Julian King, Hudson's 7-year-old nephew. David Ortuga, Hudson's fiance, stayed behind to take extensive notes when the singer fled.

Her sister Julia Hudson left as well, repeating events that occurred a day prior when both ladies excused themselves when photos of their mother Darnell Donerson, 57, and brother Jason King, 29 were displayed to jurors on Tuesday.

After the testimony, Jennifer and Julia returned to the courtroom for the remainder of the day.
