Bob Cipriano was killed April 16 at his home in a brutal baseball bat attack. His wife, Rose Cipriano, and 17-year-old son, Sal, were left in critical condition.
Rose was transported to a rehabilitation center this past week as she continues to recover from her injuries. Sal remains in critical condition.
The couple's 19-year-old son, Tucker Cipriano, and his 20-year-old friend, Mitchell Young, face murder charges after police said the men admitted to the attack.
Sal's twin brother, Tanner, also was at the home when the attack happened. Police said he called 911 from a closet and his sister allowed police into the home where they reported finding a gruesome murder scene.
Young was arrested at the home. Tucker was arrested hours later at a home in Keego Harbor. Both have a preliminary examination scheduled for May 23.
