Bowling case goes to grand jury

NASHVILLE – Accused murderers Mark Bowling and Rose Delores Vincent await a grand jury hearing after waiving their probable cause hearings on Tuesday.

The two may face the death penalty for first-degree murder in the shooting death of Bowling's wife, Julie Bowling.

Assistant District Attorney Keith Werner, the prosecutor in both cases, will present evidence to a grand jury to try to gain indictments.

The schedule for the grand jury hearing had not been announced as of 11 a.m. Tuesday.

Julie Bowling was found dead in the garage of her home on December 8. Authorities arrested Bowling and Vincent the next day.

Vincent, according to search warrants, confessed to the shooting. Search warrants also state that a fax and computer files from Mark and Julie Bowling's business, Bowling Funeral Home & Crematory, link Mark Bowling to a plot to take Julie Bowling's life.
