Two indicted for murder of elderly man

(Editor’s Note: Charges filed against the defendants are subject to change or be dismissed by the State. The indictment of a person by a grand jury or otherwise is an accusation only and that person is presumed innocent until and unless proven guilty.)
 
A Coweta County Grand Jury indicted two people for allegedly murdering an elderly man in a home in the 100 block of Brandy Lane.

Jonathan Lee Barber and Tiffany Dawn Fountain were each charged with one count of felony murder, one count of neglect to an elderly person and one count of exploitation to an elderly person, according to the indictment.

The pair reportedly deprived Rollis Nobel Bowman, 76, “... of care and sustenance that jeopardized his health between April and May of 2017,” the document read.

The indictment said Barber and Fountain also improperly used Noble’s financial resources between September of 2016 and May of 2017.

Barber and Fountain will be arraigned in Coweta County Superior Court on Feb. 26.

According to the Clerk of Courts office, Barber and three other people were also indicted in 2013 on an aggravated assault charge for allegedly attempting to rob someone at gunpoint.

Neglected him so they could get his money. The mighty dollar isn't going to get them anywhere now.
