The former star of St. Louis-based television reality show “Welcome to Sweetie Pie's” was sentenced Thursday to life in prison for arranging the shooting death of his nephew to collect a life insurance payment. James “Tim” Norman did not speak on his own behalf at the sentencing hearing in the March 2016 killing of his 21-year-old nephew, Andre Montgomery Jr. Both men had starred in the long-running OWN reality show about the family’s soul food business in the St. Louis area. “I don’t know whether Tim did what he was accused and convicted of,” wrote Robbie Montgomery, who is also the victim's grandmother.
