Bowman was arrested on Friday in connection with the 1980 homicide of a 25-year-old woman from Virginia. The woman Kathleen Doyle was killed in her home in Norfolk, Virginia on September 11, 1980.

Dennis Bowman Criminal Charges

He has a criminal history, including convictions in 1980 for sexual assault and in 1998 for federal burglary, according to Fox 17 in Grand Rapids. There’s also the case of his adopted daughter’s disappearance, though he’s never been charged with a crime in connection with it. Nine years after Doyle was murdered, 14-year-old Aundria Bowman vanished from Hamilton, Michigan, according to the National Center for Missing & Exploited Children. Before disappearing, Aundria had allegedly accused him of sexually abusing her, according to the missing persons nonprofit The Charley Project.

“He was already on parole at the time for an unrelated offense; in 1980, he had attempted to kidnap a teenage girl so he could rape her,” The Charley Project states, referencing his previous sexual assault conviction. The nonprofit claims that in 1988, a year before she vanished, Aundria had stopped going to school and told police that she was being molested. Her claims were dismissed as personal struggles stemming from learning she was adopted.
“Shortly afterward, he moved the family to a trailer in an isolated, rural area. Aundria disappeared from there,” the Charley Project states. “Her last confirmed location was reported by Dennis, who said she’d stolen some money from the house before she left.”

While he has never been classified as a suspect in his adopted daughter’s disappearance, he’s never been ruled out either, Fox 17 reports. An unnamed and retired Allegan County sheriff’s deputy told FOX 17 the department had investigated him in the past regarding Aundria’s disappearance but there wasn’t enough evidence to charge him with anything. He is now awaiting extradition to Virginia to face formal charges for the killing of Doyle. Investigators are combing through his property for evidence, according to Fox 17.
