Child pornography warrants served in Bowie by Hood County officials
Law officers from Hood County Wednesday served warrants on a woman living in Bowie who was charged on complaints of promotion of child pornography and possession of child pornography for alleged incidents in Hood County.
Arrested at 8:44 p.m. on July 26, was Vanita Erlene Romine, 56, who reportedly listed her address as 424 Elba, which is the residence of her sister Linda Romine who operates a day care at her home.
Bowie Police Detective Josh Wolfe said he has little knowledge of the case from Hood County other than the indictments related to specific incidents in Hood County with a specific person that occurred two or three years ago.
“There is no evidence this suspect did anything here or any local child was harmed. She was staying with her sister, who told us she knew nothing about the allegations. Romine and their mother recently had to leave their previous housing and moved in with her temporarily we were told” said Wolfe.
The BPD detective added on Friday there is no current investigation and no allegations made that would open an official investigation for any crimes taking place in Bowie. Romine remained in the county jail as of Friday with $70,000 in total bond on a hold from Hood County awaiting bond conditions.
