Gregory Conigliaro, a former vice president and part owner of a drug company at the center of a deadly 2012 outbreak, will face an Oct. 18 sentencing hearing before a federal judge following his conviction on a charge that he conspired to defraud the U.S. Food and Drug Administration.
Conigliaro's sentencing session will take place at 10. a.m. in Boston, Mass. before U.S. District Judge Richard G. Stearns, the same judge who presided over Conigliao's trial.
Two days later a co-defendant, Sharon Carter, will face Stearns following her conviction on the same conspiracy charge.
Carter and Conigliaro were employed at the New England Compounding Center, the company that produced the fungus laden steroids that ultimately caused more than 100 deaths. Carter was NECC's director of operations.
They were among 14 person connected to NECC who were indicted in December of 2014 following a two-year investigation of the outbreak.
