Other Lucretii
I seem to recall a certain Q. Lucretius Ofella who was an officer under L. Sulla during the civil war. He was in charge of the siege of a major city, Praeneste if I recall correctly, and later tried to run for consul against Sulla's wishes, whereupon Sulla had him killed.
Let me know if you'd like me to rummage in my old notes to find a source or two for the chap.
