Steven Brigham and Nicola Riley are in New Jersey and Utah jails, each facing five counts of second-degree murder and one count of conspiracy to commit first-degree murder.
Defense attorney Tom Brown told CNN by e-mail that Brigham “has fully cooperated with this investigation” and has not “violated any Maryland laws.” Another lawyer for Brigham, Norman Wilson, declined to comment.
Sharon Krevor-Weisbaum, an attorney at a Baltimore-based law firm that is representing Riley, said, “We believe that the criminal charges are without merit, (and) we believe it is inappropriate for (Riley) to be held without bond.”
More details are to be released Tuesday.
