An Elgin man has been charged with First Degree Murder in the stabbing death of a woman in Elgin early Saturday morning.
Kane County State’s Attorney Jamie L. Mosser and Elgin Chief of Police Ana Lalley announce that the 36-year-old subject has charged with two counts of First Degree Murder, a class M felony, after allegedly stabbing Dreanna D. Booker multiple times with a knife, causing her death. Prosecutors assert that the suspect intended to kill her and knew his actions created a strong probability of her death.

Shortly thereafter, the suspect was taken into custody without incident.
