William Balfour's

lawyer has quit his case because he cannot afford to finance the high-profile case alone. Balfour will be assigned a new public defender.
William Balfour is charged with killing Oscar and Grammy winning singer/ actress Jennifer Hudson's mother, brother and 7-year-old nephew at their Chicago home in October. Balfour has pleaded not guilty to three counts of first-degree murder and one count of home invasion. His attorney had said there is no forensic evidence linking his former client to the killings.
