Both brothers were arrested and sentenced to spend 30 days in prison for contempt of court. 

The convicted killer was taken to hospital for a check up and the sentence has been postponed.

The killer allegedly crashed his van into the back of Pledger-Stewart’s car and as she got out of the vehicle, she was repeatedly shot in broad daylight.
