Rowsey was implicated in the murder of Howard Rue Sikorski, an Alamance County convenience store clerk. Sikorski's body was discovered in the early morning of 24 March 1992. Sikorski had suffered six gunshot wounds; cash totaling $57.54 and several adult magazines was taken from the store. Raymond Steele, Rowsey's half-brother, was arrested upon attempting to use a two-dollar bill tracked following the robbery by its serial number. During questioning, he implicated Rowsey in the murder and robbery, and Rowsey was arrested the following day.

Famous quotes containing the word crime:
“Give a scientist a problem and he will probably provide a solution; historians and sociologists, by contrast, can offer only opinions. Ask a dozen chemists the composition of an organic compound such as methane, and within a short time all twelve will have come up with the same solution of CH4. Ask, however, a dozen economists or sociologists to provide policies to reduce unemployment or the level of crime and twelve widely differing opinions are likely to be offered.”
—Derek Gjertsen, British scientist, author. Science and Philosophy: Past and Present, ch. 3, Penguin (1989)
“How could passion run so deep
Had I never thought
That the crime of being born
Blackens all our lot?”
—William Butler Yeats (1865–1939)
“Only crime and the criminal, it is true, confront us with the perplexity of radical evil; but only the hypocrite is really rotten to to the core.”
—Hannah Arendt (1906–1975)
