All I know is my brother has been missing. Bryan Ashley Howser. Someone knows something and has seen something,As far as Anne yes they did have an age difference but I do not think that she had anything to do with this. I know he jumped off the Scott avenue Bridge. His body was not recovered.
So, I assume that the wife reported him missing. It makes me wonder who else were they involved with. Also, she was about 12 years younger then he was. It makes me wonder if she became involved with him. Also, what knowledge she has or had in regards to his disappearance.
You don’t even know what happened so you can dismiss yourself fr werido
He did serve time in prison. Also, in early 2001 he appeared in court on a conspiracy to commit theft felony charge. It stemmed from a 1997 case, but evidently because he was in prison it wasn’t addressed in 1997. Also, Anne Marie was charged at the same time with conspiracy to commit theft.
They were married; she is listed various places online as Anne Marie Howser, including on the Iowa courts website.
