Former “Welcome to Sweetie Pie’s” reality TV star James 'Tim' Norman will serve life in prison for conspiring to kill his nephew.
ST. LOUIS — Former St. Louis reality TV star James “Tim” Norman was sentenced to two life sentences Thursday for orchestrating a plot to kill his nephew that featured fraudulent life insurance policies, cash payouts and years of coverups.
A jury found Norman guilty in a September trial that captured national attention. Both Norman and his nephew starred in “Welcome to Sweetie Pie’s,” a long-running OWN reality show about the popular soul-food business founded by Robbie Montgomery — Norman’s mother and Andre’s grandmother — in the St. Louis area.
Norman declined to speak on his own behalf in court Thursday, but he claimed his innocence in a recent social media post. His attorneys submitted several letters from family and friends asking for leniency on his behalf before sentencing, including from Norman's mother and founder of the Sweetie Pie's restaurants Robbie Montgomery.
"I don’t know whether Tim did what he was accused and convicted of," she wrote."He is still the baby that I bore, and I love him as every mother involved loves their child." Norman’s defense attorney Mike Leonard argued in court Thursday that a life sentence for Norman would be disproportionate.
