While actress Jennifer Hudson remains in seclusion in Chicago, a company that manufactures shotgun racks is being criticized for profiting off the murders of her family members.
The company sent out a news release Tuesday that asked, “Could a Bedside Shotgun Rack Have Saved Jennifer Hudson’s Family from Tragic Death?”
The rack, called The Back-Up is designed to fit along the side of the gun owner’s bed. The shotgun or rifle is hidden by the bedcovers. A tv commercial for the Back Up points out that “many customers are buying one for each side of the bed.” (WATCH VIDEO)
The release goes on to say, “Whether it is someone known or a stranger entering the home, too many people in this country are paying with their lives during these home invasions. The Hudson family is just one of far too many Americans gunned down in their own home.”
An official with the company denies using the Hudson tragedy to promote their product. (Source)
