Jury prepares verdict in Bowers fraud and conspiracy case
Federal jury near decision on Karl Bowers, his brother Lee, and Henry F. Glover in Hampton County real estate schemes from 1974 to 1976. Prosecutor claims funds from the Farmers Home Administration were used to finance purchases and sales, while defense argues legality of profit from repossessed government homes. Judge Hemphill denied a requested acquittal for Lee Bowers as arguments wrapped up.
