Agnieszka Rydzewski, 33, was charged with solicitation to commit murder. Earlier Saturday, her lover, 20-year-old Anthony Calderon, of Bedford Park, had already been charged with first-degree murder in the shooting of Cantu, and was ordered detained during a pretrial hearing at the Leighton Criminal Courts Building.
Cantu's body was found on the side of his apartment building, where he was pronounced dead at the scene, said Chief Ricardo Mancha, of the Bridgeview Police Department.
Working with the South Suburban Major Crimes Task Force, Bridgeview police were able to obtain surveillance video from nearby businesses.
Using video and other methods, detectives were able to determine the person on video connected to the murder was the same approximate height and weight as Calderon. He was arrested Friday coming out of his home in the 7700 block of West 65th Street in Bedford Park.
Once in custody, Bridgeview police said Calderon made a full and complete admission to fatally shooting Cantu, describing the date, time and location of the murder. Calderon is also alleged to have given statements leading investigators to the clothing he was wearing and the weapon.
