Bodies from freezer might be adopted daughters

Montgomery County police said yesterday they are confident two girls found encased in ice in a basement freezer are the adopted daughters of a woman suspected of killing them. The children have been tentatively identified as Jasmine Nicole Bowman, who would have been 9, and Minnet C. Bowman, who would have been 11. Police found the bodies last month in Renee Bowman's freezer in Lusby in Southern Maryland. They believe the children might have been dead since at least last November, when the family moved from Rockville, in Montgomery County. Bowman, 43, is a suspect but has not been charged in the deaths. Dr. David Fowler, Maryland's chief medical examiner, said his office is still hoping to confirm the identities through scientific tests, but that is often difficult for children.
