CHICAGO, IL — A 23-year-old woman has been charged with first-degree murder in the death of a Des Plaines man, police said. Aida Busatlic, of Chicago's Lincoln Square neighborhood, appeared in court Monday for a bail hearing. The victim, 26-year-old Spiros Ibrem, was shot in the head Friday morning at a home on the city's Northwest Side, according to police and the Cook County medical examiner's office.
