New England Compounding Center
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
New England Compounding Center (NECC) was a compounding pharmacy founded in 1998. Based in Framingham, Massachusetts, NECC was a family-run business owned by Barry J. Cadden, his wife, Lisa Cadden (née Conigliaro)[5] and her brother Gregory Conigliaro.[6][7] The company declared bankruptcy in 2012, and Barry Cadden was sentenced to 14.5 years in prison for 57 counts of racketeering and fraud, along with sentences to other company owners and executives, associated with mass illness and deaths due to the contaminated preparations NECC knowingly distributed to clients.[8] They all managed to avoid conviction for second-degree murder.[8]
