SEATTLE - Thomas Dinh Bowman, 32, was sentenced to 29 years in prison Friday for the 2012 murder of a Seattle man.

A jury convicted Bowman of killing Yancy Noll in December. During the trial, prosecutors called the murder a random thrill-killing.

Dinh Bowman was convicted last month of first-degree murder in the August 2012 shooting of Yancy Noll, a wine steward who was driving home.

Bowman testified Noll had thrown a wine bottle into his convertible and hit him on the head in a road rage incident in north Seattle's Roosevelt neighborhood.

Prosecutors told the jury that Bowman was a student of murder who read manuals on how to kill and get away with it.
