- Seminole Grand Jury Indicts Nathaniel BRATCHER for First-Degree Murder
Tuesday (Nov 12), the Seminole County Grand Jury indicted Nathaniel BRATCHER (26), on one (1) count of First-Degree Premeditated Murder (CF), and one (1) count of Armed Burglary with a Firearm (F1 PBL), in connection to the shooting death of Larreon Cosby (32), in unincorporated Lake Mary.
On September 18, 2024, Seminole County Sheriff's Deputies responded to a residence in the Sun Lake Apartments after witnesses reported hearing an argument and a single gunshot. Upon arrival deputies discovered Cosby in his apartment already deceased from a gunshot wound. Witness testimony and physical evidence linked BRATCHER to the murder, including text messages threatening to kill the victim over a relationship with BRATCHER's former girlfriend. Located after a traffic stop of his vehicle, BRATCHER was arrested and held without bond on September 19, 2024.
The Seminole County Medical Examiner later ruled Cosby's death a homicide, the result of a single gunshot wound.
The Grand Jury heard testimony from a Seminole County Investigator before returning with the indictment.
No trial date has been set in this case. Please consult the Seminole Clerk of Courts website for updates on future court appearances by this defendant.
