Lathe Corbin looks around during a preliminary hearing Tuesday in Hamilton County General Session Judge Clarence Shattuck’s courtroom. Corbin is charged with first-degree murder in the Sept. 12 shooting death of Aundre Bush on Southern Street.The footage is shaky, but the cellphone video used to record a fight that broke out on Southern Street caught the moment distinctly: A man fires a gun at a 19-year-old, who crumples to the ground.
The case of a man accused of killing Aundre Bush during a brawl among a group of teenage girls on Sept. 12 has been bound over to the Hamilton County grand jury after the judge watched the cellphone video of Bush’s slaying.
General Sessions Judge Clarence Shattuck upped Lathe Corbin’s charges from criminal homicide to first-degree murder after reviewing the footage.
Corbin, 30, remains in custody at the Hamilton County Jail on a $1 million bond.
As he pulled out an easel and an iPad to show the video in Shattuck’s courtroom Tuesday, Hamilton County District Attorney General Bill Cox told the court that they had the rare opportunity to “see someone kill somebody in cold blood.”
