Former Police Captain Faces More Sex Charges
WEST VIRGINIA....
Foster G. "Pete" Bowen, 80, of Barboursville, a former Huntington Police Department captain charged with sexual assault this week, may face additional charges in Webster County. Two men, who were juveniles at the time, say he repeatedly assaulted them between 1986 and 1992 at his home on Shaw Street. People involved in the case told police some of the abuse happened at Bowen's camp in Bergoo, Webster County. When troopers searched the camp, they found various evidence, including pornographic material. Bowen faces two counts of sexual assault, two counts of sexual assault by a guardian, two counts of displaying obscene material to a minor and two counts of using obscene material to seduce a minor in Cabell County. West Virginia State Police say there may be more charges.
