Who is Thomas Clyde Bowling Jr.?

Thomas Bowling is an American convicted murderer who unsuccessfully challenged the constitutionality of his death sentence.

Bowling was convicted and sentenced to death for the April 9, 1990, murders of Tina and Eddie Earley. Bowling shot the Earleys dead after ramming their car outside their small dry-cleaning business in the city of Lexington, Kentucky. Bowling also shot the couple's two-year old son, but the child survived. Thomas Bowling was arrested on April 11, in neighboring Tennessee. His car and a .357 calibre handgun were found hidden at his family's home in rural Kentucky.

Bowling's attorneys are currently pursuing appeals and clemency on the grounds of potential innocence and mental retardation.
