A man who allegedly stabbed his wife to death after a argument stemming from an alleged affair before attempting to take his own life has been charged.
Salvador Radilla, 40, of the 3000 block of West 24th Street was charged with one count of first-degree murder in the stabbing death of Edubina Radilla, 26, on Saturday morning, said Andy Conklin, a spokesman for the Cook County state's attorney's office.
Police responded to the couple's home about 7:30 a.m. Saturday and found the door open and an infant crying in the apartment, Conklin said. The victim was found unresponsive on the floor with multiple stab wounds to her left rib cage, back and arm. Salvador Radilla was lying next to her bleeding from his wrist and neck, Conklin said. The baby was unharmed. Edubina Radilla was pronounced dead in the apartment shortly before 9:30 a.m. Saturday, the Cook County medical examiner's office said.
Radilla was given a $2 million bail and his next court apperaance will be April 18. He will be held at the Cook County Jail when he is released from the hospital. The Illinois DCFS (Department of Children & Family Services) was investigating the incident, and the child is in the custody of relatives.
