This is an iHeart Podcast. Crime Alert, I'm Nancy Grace. Breaking crime news now. Betty Bowman, suffering from severe diarrhea, admitted to the hospital. Four days later, she dies. Her husband, Connor Bowman, a doctor with poison control, asks hospital staff how thorough their autopsy toxicology screening is. Investigators then find Bowman used his work computer to calculate, based on Betty's weight, a lethal dose of gout medication, colchicine. Nancy, cops first began looking into Betty's death when Connor Bowman used his medical

credentials to access the information from her hospital stay. A friend of Betty's also expressed concern, reporting she had been considering divorce after her husband's infidelity. Bowman also stood to receive a $500,000 life insurance payment if Betty died, a similar amount to his debt from medical school. Testing reveals Betty's cause of death is indeed colchicine toxicity. Connor Bowman, just 30 years old, now charged with murder. I guess they didn't teach him D-I-V-O-R-C-E in med school. The stakes were high on this police chase. A loose cow ends up in a Colorado neighborhood, his owners and cops hot on his tail. The cow runs through yards, slips between cars, bolts down the street with a posse behind him trying to rope him in.

Officers finally corral the cow on the neighborhood playground. He's safely loaded into a trailer for the trip home. In a Facebook post about the call, the sheriff's office wrote, We didn't want to butcher the slow speed chase, but that cow was really moving. Their words, not mine.
