A man faces a first-degree murder charge in the death of a Gresham woman found tied up and dead in a bathtub over a year ago.
Kevin Sabbs, 35, was ordered held without bail Sunday in Cook County in the murder of Shantel Boler, according to Chicago police and county records.
Sabbs was arrested on a warrant in Louisville, Kentucky and extradited to Chicago Feb. 7, police said.
Boler was 32 years old when she was found dead Aug. 5, 2018 in a bathtub in the 1500 block of West 78th Street, authorities said at the time.
