Michigan officials now say that Glenn Chin and Barry Cadden, who have been charged with multiple counts of second degree murder, spent Tuesday night at the Livingston County Jail and are slated to be returned to federal custody today.
The two were brought to Michigan to face charges of 11 counts of second degree murder.
A spokeswoman for the Michigan Attorney General said it was not immediately clear whether the two will be sent to a federal prison in Michigan or to federal prisons ion Pennsylvania.
The two were connected to the New England Compounding Center, the company that produced steroids contaminated with deadly fungi.
The steroids, prepared under Chin's supervision, sickened nearly 800 patients, killing more than 100 of them. The two are charged in the deaths of 11 Michigan patients who were injected with NECC steroids.
The two are due to appear for a June. 11 hearing on the Michigan charges.
Cadden and Chin were convicted on racketeering and mail fraud charges in separate trials in Boston, Mass. Caddcn was sentenced to a nine year sentence at the federal prison in Lorreto. Chin was given an eight year sentence at the federal prison in Allenwood, Pa.
