Bowers, a respected attorney from Columbia, South Carolina, once worked in the Department of Justice under President George W. Bush.
Barbier, a litigator in South Carolina, has worked closely with several notable cases and was a former federal prosecutor in the state for 15 years before opening her own boutique criminal defense firm.
This is a striking story and will be updated.
