Bowers, however, has supplied witnesses to support his account and his lawyer criticized the police for bringing the charges without sufficient evidence. Attorney Daniel Russo said. “The Vallejo police should be ashamed of themselves . . . Normally it’s dangerous for a defense attorney to say this, but I categorically deny that Bowers had any contact with his wife.”
Bowers posted $25,000 bail and transferred his case to another judge. It is not clear how long he will refrain from hearing cases.
