The reporter and his crew were at Metro Airport for the return from India of Lakshminivasa Nerusu, a 46-computer programmer, in the custody of a Novi detective and FBI agent, as shown in a three-minute news video.
He was arraigned Sunday on first-degree murder charges in the fatal beatings and stabbings of his wife, Jayalakshmi Nerusu, 14-year-old daughter and 12-year old son on Oct. 13, 2008.
Police believe he fled the country the following day. The family was discovered dead two weeks later inside their townhouse. . . .
The gruesome murder scene sickened even veteran investigators.
