Oakland Man Convicted In 2003 Tenderloin Killing « CBS San Francisco: "A jury deliberated for less than three days before finding Joevon Bowen guilty of the murder of 26-year-old Armando Arce early on the morning of Feb. 19, 2003, according to the San Francisco District Attorney’s Office.
Arce was shot 12 times near the intersection of Willow Alley and Polk Street after two other men were murdered hours earlier in Oakland as part of an apparent gang initiation, according to the district attorney’s office.
Bowen, 32, was long suspected in Arce’s killing, but was not arrested until 2009, following the conviction of another man in Alameda County the previous year for his role as a lookout in Arce’s killing, as well as the Oakland murders.
Monterrio Davis, of Oakland, was convicted of the murders in Alameda County in 2008 and was later sentenced to life in prison.
Alameda County prosecutors said Davis, Bowen and others had been part of a plan to start a new branch of the “Nut Cases,” a notorious Oakland street gang that became weakened in early 2003 when many of its leaders were arrested."
