Duranleau was found dead with multiple stab wounds in a high-rise apartment that sits above a housewares store in the 500 block of North State Street. Latham also lived in the building, according to records.
Northwestern University issued a statement today confirming that Lathem, “an associate professor of microbiology-immunology, has been placed on administrative leave and banned from entering the Northwestern University campuses.”
Warren worked in the treasury department of Somerville College, which is part of Oxford University.
Police have indicated that Duranleau may have died in a domestic-related incident.
