One man, 29-year-old Bobby Wisner, was charged in August in connection with the death of Sandy, a cab driver. Sandy identified his attacker as "Bobby," who he said was the brother of a man who lived with him. He slipped into a coma, but eventually woke up and identified Wisner from a photo lineup. It was not immediately clear how police believe Latham is tied to the crime.
