Hearing Delayed For Former Huntington Police Captain
WEST VIRGINIA....
A preliminary hearing was canceled Friday for former Huntington Police captain 80 year old Foster "Pete" Bowen of Barboursville. Bowen was arrested in August and charged with multiple counts of sexual abuse which allegedly happened about 20 years ago and involved five victims who were then between the ages of eight and 13. According to police, the sex acts took place in Bowen's home in Barboursville, and pornographic material allegedly was sometimes used to entice the victims. Magistrate Court Officials say the hearing was canceled after prosecutors decided to take the case to grand jury for a direct indictment. A Cabell County Grand Jury met earlier this week. Their findings are expected to be released on October 1st.
