Former Sen. Pleasant Bridgewater and Tarino Lightbourne are free on $50,000 bail. They entered their not guilty please Tuesday, denying that they were part of a conspiracy to commit extortion.
The case revolves around a secret document allegedly related to Jett's death after he suffered a seizure in the family's vacation home on Grand Bahamas Island in January. The trial is set for Sept. 21.
