Erbie “E-Luv” Bowser, the man killing four women in Dallas, used to be in the Army, reports say.

According to Sports World News, Bowser was enrolled in the forces from October 1991 to November 2000. He even made it all the way to a staff sergeant rank.

As I detailed earlier, he went to Dallas, where he murdered his ex-girlfriend and her teenage daughter, and DeSoto, where he fatally shot his estranged wife and her 27-year-old daughter.

His wife, Zina Bowser, was a nurse practitioner who filed for divorce from the suspect in 2011. She cited repeated domestic violence incidents at the time, and she had also been granted a restraining order.

"Family violence has occurred and is likely to occur in the future," the affidavit reads.

At the time, Bowser was also order to retrieve jewelry belonging to the woman from a pawn shop, which he never did.
