A sentencing hearing was scheduled for May 19. Williams says within three days, Bridewell will be interviewed for a report to be given to Judge Dever that will include detailed information about her health, background and history. He adds that the judge is not bound by the plea agreement.

Also attending the hearing were Lieutenant Marty Folding, Detective Jayne Todd and assistant district attorney Brooke Leland of Brunswick County, who say that Bridewell is still under investigation in their jurisdiction.
