Wrong Bowman on Front Page

By Antonio D. French

Filed Tuesday, January 30, 2007 at 12:16 PM

The Post-Dispatch put a picture of the wrong John Bowman on the front page of today's paper.

In their story on the state representative's indictment yesterday, the Post mistakenly published a photo of Bowman's son, John Bowman, Jr.

In 2002, Bowman, Jr. ran for his father's 70th District State Rep seat against Matt Muckler while the elder Bowman ran for state senate against Rita Days. Both lost.

Two years later, Bowman, Sr. defeated Muckler to regain his House seat.
