A Chicago man is being held on a $1 million bond for stabbing his boyfriend to death after an argument about their relationship, Chicago Sun-Times reported.
Clifton Hooker, 32, was charged with first-degree murder after allegedly stabbing his boyfriend, Alphonzo Guinyard, 26, in the back Jan. 24. Judge Adam D. Bourgeois ordered the bond Jan. 26.
Guinyard visited Hooker’s home in the 3400 block of West Polk Street, and at some point demanded to see Hooker’s phone because he thought Hooker was cheating on him. Hooker called 911 and said an “unwanted person” was in his home, after which the fight escalated further. Hooker allegedly then retrieved the knife and stabbed Guinyard.
Prosecutors said that Hooker admitted to the stabbing in a second 911 call, and that Guinyard was unarmed. Guinyard was pronounced dead at the scene. The couple had been dating since 2014.
