Rowley Pleads Guilty To Two 1980 Murders

Last updated on Tuesday, December 16, 2014

(TERRE HAUTE) - Harry Rowley has pleaded guilty as charged to the two 1980 murders of two Indiana State University students.

Police believe Rowley was involved in the 1980 murders of Lucinda Farmer and Mary Quillen. This was a cold case that was reopened in 2010

The two were found in an alley on North 14th Street with gunshot wounds to the head.

Detectives went to interview Rowley in California earlier this year where he was serving a life sentence for murder. Throughout the interview, detectives discovered enough information to issue an arrest warrant.

Terre Haute Police brought Rowley back from California late last week.
