Salt Lake City man charged with sexual assault, attempted murder of homeless woman who's now on life support
On the morning of April 21, a woman was found naked and unconscious lying in an alley near 280 East Hampton Avenue . Police said there was blood all over the ground at the scene, including a trail of blood leading to a blanket and a pile of clothing. A car with no license plates was also in the alley, which had blood on the inside and outside.
Police served a search warrant on Cowans' home, located a few blocks from the crime scene. There, they found the keys and temporary vehicle registration for the car in the alley. There was also a pair of work boots, which police said had blood on them and tread that matched a bloody footprint left at the scene.
The victim, later identified as a 48-year-old woman who was experiencing homelessness, was initially reported to be in critical but stable condition. However, as of Thursday when charges were filed, she was close to losing her life. Charging documents say she is still unconscious, intubated, has"some brain activity," but will die if medical support is removed.
