2.4.12 UPDATE: The photos for this story won first place in the General News category of the National Press Photographers Association’s Region 3 Monthly Clip Contest for July 2011.

Ivan Reyes Sr. — holding his son, Ivan Jr. — lunges at killer Martey J. Williams on July 20, 2011, at a sentencing hearing in Jersey City, N.J. Williams had smiled as Reyes showed the court scars on his son, who was injured in the Dec. 8, 2009, attack that killed his wife, Jacqueline. Reyes was found in contempt of court but was released three hours later after time served. Williams pleaded guilty last month and his sentencing was postponed.
