Tim Norman, the star of Welcome To Sweetie Pie’s has been sentenced to life in prison for participating in his nephew, Andre Montgomery Jr murder.

On Thursday, March 2nd, Norman received two life sentences and a 240-month sentence. During his trial in September 2022, he was found guilty of conspiracy to commit murder-for-hire, murder-for-hire resulting in death, and mail fraud. 

Initially, he was accused of being in charge of the murder plot in 2020 after it was revealed that he took out a life insurance policy for $450,000 for his nephew, Andre, in 2014. On February 23rd, Tim Norman went on Instagram to proclaim his innocence. 

“Thank you for all the prayers. I’m still in disbelief. The feds know 100% I did not do those insurance policies,” he wrote. “But the jury didn’t get to hear that. And not one person got on the stand and said that I told them to hurt my nephew. They destroyed my name and image so you guys wouldn’t search for the truth.” 

Reports state that three other people who were involved in the murder were also charged. The shooter, Travell Anthony Hill was sentenced to 32 years in prison in October 2022. The insurance agent, Waiel Rebhi Yaghnam, was sentenced to three years in prison for conspiracy to commit mail and wire fraud and Terica Ellis was sentenced to three years for conspiracy to commit murder-for-hire, although she was originally facing 20 years.
