Former John Edwards Aide Not Going to Jail for Contempt

A judge ruled Friday that John Edwards' former aide, Andrew Young, was not in contempt of court for his explanation of how he'd handled certain items -- including an alleged Edwards sex tape -- sought by the ex-senator’s former mistress Rielle Hunter, says the Associated Press.

On Tuesday, Superior Court Judge Abraham Penn Jones had expressed interest in jailing Young and his wife Cheri for up to 75 days by holding them in contempt.

Hunter has sued Young for invasion of privacy, says the AP.
