The British national who said he helped a professor fatally stab the professor’s boyfriend in 2017 was formally sentenced to 45 years in prison.
The British national who said he helped a Northwestern professor fatally stab the professor’s young boyfriend in 2017 was formally sentenced Wednesday to 45 years in prison.
He also had ample opportunity to alert police about the plot but never did, Charlotte Cornell, one of Cornell’s mothers, said in court Wednesday.“Once Andrew Warren knew of Lathem’s plan, he could have stopped this crime from happening,” she said. “Warren could have called and reported the plan to authorities, he could have stopped a police officer on the street … this was a most heinous and unbelievable crime that he committed with Wyndham Lathem.
Warren testified at Lathem’s trial that he met Lathem online and they made plans for him to travel to Chicago as part of their elaborate suicidal plan. Instead they stabbed Cornell to death and fled town.Cornell’s mothers, Mischelle Duranleau and Charlotte Cornell, told reporters after the sentencing that they were deeply relieved that court proceedings had finally concluded more than four years since their son’s death.
Illinois law does not allow for good-behavior credit on first-degree murder sentences, so Warren would have to serve out his full sentence if he stays in the U.S.
