Cowhig Acquitted in Illegal Bingo Case in Alexandria
Alexandria Commonwealth's Attorney William Cowhig was acquitted of operating illegal bingo games after a seven hour, two day jury deliberation. He had previously been acquitted in December of taking $32,000 in protection money from a bingo hall operator. Cowhig faces a March trial on a charge of running illegal bingo games for an Explorer Scout troop he helped form in 1977. The special prosecutor declined comment. Cowhig expressed happiness with the verdict.
