Reports surface of Tim Norman’s arrest in the death of Andre Montgomery

In a shocking turn of events, Norman is currently in prison for allegedly having a role in Andre’s death. A Riverfront Times report reveals that the FBI is charging Norman and others with murder for hire.

The report alleges that two years prior to Andre’s death, Norman took out life insurance policies on his nephew totaling $450,000 life insurance. The policies reveal Norman as the sole beneficiary.

Reports also reveal Norman’s attempt to take out other policies on Andre. The other applications were flagged for including fraudulent information regarding Andre’s income and occupation.

In the days leading up to Andre’s murder, investigators say Norman communicated with co-conspirators on burner phones, including to get Andre’s location. Moments after Andre was shot, investigators claim that Norman and others continued speaking on the burner phones. 

Four days after the murder, Norman allegedly tried cashing in on the policy, but never did so as he could not provide proper documentation.
