© WGN / Cook CountyDonald Thurman, 26, is charged with first-degree murder and sexual assault in the death of Ruth George, who was found dead Saturday in a parking garage on the UIC campus.
The man charged in the murder of UIC student Ruth George at a campus parking garage was denied bail Tuesday.
Donald Thurman, 26, is charged with
first-degree murder and sexual assault. Police said he has confessed to the crime and has a criminal history.
Judge Charles Beach II ordered Thurman held without bail, after Cook County prosecutors said he admitted to the attack. He has no connection to UIC and did not know George, police said.
The 19-year-old sophomore
was found strangled in the backseat of her family's car at a UIC parking garage near Halsted and Taylor streets.
Police said surveillance video shows Thurman at about 1:35 a.m. Saturday following George into the garage and then leaving a half hour later.
A person of interest is in custody after authorities said a University of Illinois Chicago student was strangled at a campus parking garage.
Thurman allegedly confessed after being arrested Sunday morning at the nearby Harrison and Halsted Blue Line stop. Investigators said they had staked out that station after tracking his travel patterns with the help of nearby cameras.
"
The defendant was angry that he was being ignored. The defendant came up behind the victim, grabbed her around the neck from behind, and put her into a choke hold," said Cook County Asst. State's Attorney James Murphy.
"With his arms still wrapped around the victim's neck the defendant dragged the victim from the ground and he opened her back seat car door."
Comment: So much for Cohen 'just being a comedian'. With this speech (to the ADL, no less!), he joins the globalists' call for mass censorship - precisely the kind of thing Hitler would have approved of. The 'funnyman' recently played a Mossad officer in a 'serious' biopic. It all puts his past 'performances' in a new light. Was he 'just making fun of' 'whoever' when singing ditties about 'throwing the Jews down the well', or was there a particular political slant to his characters?
As for social media being 'the largest mass propaganda machine in history'... whew, just don't mention the globalist MSM - largely controlled by his 'tribe'.
