Chin, Cadden Arraignments Moved Up

By Walter F. Roche Jr.

The arraignment of Barry Cadden and Glenn Chin on multiple second degree murder charges in Michigan has been re-scheduled and is now set for Monday in Livingston County Michigan District Court before Magistrate Jerry Sherwood..
The arraignment had been set for March 1, but was re-set after the two defendants were sent from separate federal prisons in Pennsylvania where they are serving prison sentences following their conviction on federal racketeering and mail fraud charges.
The Michigan charges stem from the 2012 fungal meningitis outbreak which killed more than 100 patients in 20 states, including at least 19 in Michigan.
The two defendants are expected to enter not guilty pleas.
Chin is currently serving an eight year sentence at a federal prison in Allenwood, PA. while Cadden is serving a nine year sentence in Loretto, Pa.
Cadden was president and part owner of the company blamed for the outbreak while Chin was a supervising pharmacist.
