Fingerprint seen as deciding factor
Fingerprint evidence has been determined a suspect in the June 4, 2014, armed robbery of a downtown Bowie store, but no arrest will be possible.
Bowie Police Assistant Chief Kent Stagg said he received a letter Thursday from the Department of Public Safety Crime Lab in Garland that confirmed the late James Weldon McGowan as the robbery suspect.
The 28-year-old McGowan committed suicide while in custody in the Montague County Jail on July 29, 2014. Read the full story in the Saturday Bowie News. Pictured, James Weldon McGowan.
The following indictments were filed with the 97th District Clerk following the November session of the Montague County Grand Jury.
There were a total of 13 indictments with one sealed awaiting the arrest of a suspect.
A grand jury indictment is not evidence of guilt. All defendants are presumed innocent until proven guilty beyond a reasonable doubt in a court of law.
