Murder Suspect's Husband Criticizes Police For Bareheaded Mugshot

In Orland Park, Illinois, police have arrested 26-year old Nour Hadid on charges of beating her 2-year old niece to death over a four day period, according to Friday's Southtown Star. Prosecutors say she has confessed to the crime. However Nour's husband, Alaeddin Hadid, says his wife is innocent and that police have insulted their Muslim religion by releasing a mug shot of his wife without her head covered. Police say that Nour's headscarf was given back to her after the mug shot was taken, but the headscarf was later taken away from her after she made suicide threats.
