Bowen, who was accused of possession of a firearm with intent to endanger life and possessing a firearm whilst being a prohibited person, denied the charge,
He was acquitted following an eight-day trial
Yesterday both were sentenced to 13 years and six months imprisonment for possession of a firearm with intent to endanger life, and an additional three years for the danger he had posed to public safety.
Detective Constable Paul Valverde of the Met’s Trident Area Crime Command said: “The sentences handed down are the result of combined hard work and tenacity not only from Trident officers but also the witnesses who bravely came forward and assisted the investigation.
“The sentences handed down have taken two very dangerous individuals to a place where they’re actions no longer pose a danger to the public.”
