  • Maryland freezer kids were asphyxiated

    Police: Girls Found In Freezer Died Of Asphyxiation:

    For those of you who were reading the site for a while, you may remember the case of Renee Bowman, aka Frog Clown. (Look at her mugshot and that will explain everything.)

    She’s the woman from Maryland who police found the bodies of two of her adopted children in a freezer. A third daughter had to literally jump from the 2nd story of the house and contacted police because of abuse.

    The cause of death of the two girls has been released. 9-year-old Jasmine Nicole Bowman and 11-year-old Minnet Cecilia Bowman died of asphyxiation.

    What I haven’t seen in any of the articles I read was exactly how the girls were asphyxiated.

    Names of Girls Found in Maryland Freezer Released:

    There’s been more news in the case of Frog Clown over there, Renee Bowman. She’s the one who was abusing her adopted child when police found the corpses of two of her other adopted children in her freezer.

    The girls that were found in the freezer have now been identified as 9-year-old Jasmine Nicole Bowman and 11-year-old Minnet Cecelia Bowman. Their exact ages at the time of their deaths have not been determined yet.

    Frog Clown has not been charged with their deaths as of yet. I’m assuming they’re waiting on autopsy results before filing charges on the girls’ deaths. She is still being held on child abuse charges.

    Police: Remains May Have Been Moved Several Times:

    More details about Frog Clown over there (Renee Bowman) and her adopted foster children whose bodies were found in Bowman’s freezer.

    Police are saying that they believed the girls died while the ‘family’ was living in Rockland, Md. and that the bodies had been moved multiple times.

    The one girl who was still alive had extensive injuries.

    Charging documents described the third girl’s injuries as “extensive open, infected sores and lesions” and “eyes scarred in the corners.”

    And this is how police were tipped off…

    Neighbor Phillip Garrett found the girl walking barefoot on a gravel road in a blood-soaked T-shirt. He said she was covered in bruises. Garrett, 21, who lives two houses down from Bowman, said he brought the girl to a neighbor’s house, called 911 and ordered her a pizza. She indicated she had last eaten on Tuesday when her father was at the home, said Garrett, who realized he had met her mother once and described her as “frazzled.”

    And as I predicted Bowman was still receiving a $2,400 stipend for the girls even after two had died.

    The D.C. Child and Family Services Agency is really feeling the heat now especially since this is not the first tragedy they’ve been linked to.

    Authorities Find Children’s Frozen Corpses:

    I couldn’t decide on whether to call her Homey the Clown because of her hair or The Frog because of her neck. So Frog Clown over there is 43-year-old Renee Bowman of Lusby, Maryland.

    Police were investigating her home over the weekend because of child abuse complaints.

    While police were searching the house they discovered the frozen corpses of two children in her freezer. They’re believed to be the bodies of her adopted daughters. Bowman allegedly admitted that the bodies have been in there since at least February. The girls are believed to be 11 and 9.

    There was also a 7-year-old girl in the house who Bowman allegedly beat with a shoe. The girl escaped by jumping out of a window.

    The three girls were adopted out of foster care in Washington D.C. I would lay odds that Bowman was collecting checks for the girls after they were gone.

    Thanks to Marley, Tony and Daniel for the tip.
