Prosecutors charged Lathem with first-degree murder in what they say was a vicious premeditated attack on his young lover, Trenton Cornell, in July 2017, saying he and accomplice Andrew Warren ambushed Cornell in Lathem’s apartment and then went on the lam. Warren testified last week that he and Lathem had plans to kill each other in a premeditated death pact, and that Lathem was speaking generally about killing others as well. Lathem began the attack on Cornell, then Warren ultimately joined in, he testified.
“Strength, how he feels, how the ball is getting out of his hand, can he manipulate his pitches, does he feel he’s able to potentially go five, six innings, give us X number of pitches in a game,” Hahn said. “It’s about taking the time following the previous outing to put us in a position of strength and building off of that.

And when we did arrest people, we were unable to put guns in people’s hands. So this one is a little more convoluted.”

“So the team, I spoke to a bunch of leaders one-on-one, spoke to all the players, they’re good, they’re focused on Tennessee,” Meyer said on how his team received his apology. “I apologized again for being a distraction. A coach should not be a distraction.”
