A man serving time for a high profile murder has been indicted on charges of trafficking in prison contraband.

Dennis Dechaine was convicted of murdering 12 year old Sarah Cherry in 1988.

NEWS CENTER’S midcoast media partner Village Soup dot com reports  that a Knox County grand jury has indicted Dechaine.

The indictment alleges that on April fifth, Dechaine had morphine and / or klonopine. That was the week that he was rushed to the hospital, reportedly near death after his heart rate and blood pressure dropped. Dechaine was hospitalized for two weeks.

Prison officials have never said what he was treated for.
