The Utah Board of Pardons and Parole announced last week that Michael John Bowden, 28, will be granted parole effective November 2009. He has been ordered to complete mental health treatment and an internal prison drug program.
Bowden was sentenced to serve up to 15 years for child abuse, a second-degree felony. He was convicted of neglecting to care for Jade Ferrando and allowing her to wither down to 12 pounds back in 2006.

DO NOT ATTEMPT TO APPREHEND
Bowden apologized in court Monday. "I am sorry for everything that happened and for everything I caused," he said. "I made bad choices to drink and do drugs rather than take care of [the child]."
prosecutor Fred Burmester said the case was about a little girl who was nearly starved to death, not about Bowden, who Burmester said tries to portray himself as a victim.
Furthermore, Burmester said the diagnostic report did not show Bowden suffers from full-blown post traumatic stress syndrome. Additionally, the report pointed out Bowden has not accepted full responsibility for what happened, Burmester said.
