Dennis Bowman was already serving two life sentences in Virginia for the deaths of women in that state.

A judge sentenced an Allegan County man to 35 years in prison, in connection with the death of his adopted daughter.  Dennis Bowman pleaded no contest to the murder of Aundria Bowman in the late 1980’s.  But he won’t be serving time here.

Bowman is currently being held in Virginia for the deaths of two women in that state.  He was also being held on additional crime charges.

Bowman admitted to his wife of his involvement in Aundria's death.  He also directed police to where he had buried Aundria on the property the couple owned.

Allegan County Prosecutor Myrana Koch says the nature of the crime prompted the judge to sentence Bowman outside the normal guidelines, and ensured he would spend the rest of his life behind bars.

Don’t be concerned about the outward beauty of fancy hairstyles, expensive jewelry, or beautiful clothes. You should clothe yourselves instead with the beauty that comes from within, the unfading beauty of a gentle and quiet spirit, which is so precious to God.
