Glen Rogers Convicted In Calif. Killing

LOS ANGELES — A former Hamilton, Ohio, man already sentenced to die in Florida was convicted Tuesday of first-degree murder for strangling a woman in Los Angeles.

The same jury that convicted Glen Rogers began deciding later Tuesday whether he also should face a death sentence in California or get life in prison without chance of parole.

Mr. Rogers, 38, was convicted of killing Sandra Gallagher in September 1995. The 33-year-old mother of three met Mr. Rogers in a bar, and her body was found later in a burning truck.

Prosecutors claimed that was the first of several killings during a monthlong, cross-country crime wave in 1995. Mr. Rogers was arrested in Kentucky after a nationwide manhunt.

In closing arguments June 17, prosecutor Pat Dixon said Mr. Rogers lied when he blamed another man.

“You saw his false, syrupy, sweet, sick, good-guy image he was trying to throw at you,” the prosecutor said. “Neck strangulation was premeditation, in and of itself.”

Deputy Public Defender Jim Coady told jurors the crime appeared to be an act of passion.

“If you get to the point of doing this, it shows rage,” Mr. Coady said. “It's not premeditation, and it's not first-degree murder.”

He asked jurors to set aside evidence from the out-of-state murders, which were allowed by the judge to show an alleged pattern.

The jury reached a verdict during the fourth day of deliberations.

In addition to his 1997 Florida conviction in the killing of a woman stabbed in a Tampa motel room, charges are pending against Mr. Rogers in Jackson, Miss. Another alleged victim was found in Bossier City, La., but no charges were filed in that case.

A serial killer whose gory trail may have started near Cincinnati 10 years ago -- or even earlier -- is the subject of new book, co-written by an Ohio University alumnus.

But "Road Dog," by Stephen Combs and Bobcat alum John Eckberg, is more than just a lurid recounting of the murders -- at least five, maybe more -- committed by former Hamilton County resident Glen Rogers.

It's also a story of how legal red tape and turf battles may have let Rogers roam freely around the country for two years, killing women as he went, though he already had killed a man in Hamilton, and police had ample reason to pick him up.

"I didn't set out to write a book about a serial killer," said Eckberg, who writes for The Cincinnati Enquirer. I'm not a slasher book writer."

Rogers hit the news in a big way in November 1995 after his arrest in Kentucky. By then, he was being sought for the murders of four women he had met and charmed on his travels -- one each in California, Mississippi, Florida and Louisiana.

In the debate over who got to try him first, Florida won. He was convicted there for the murder of * Tina Cribbs and sentenced to death. He was later convicted in California for the murder of Sandra Gallagher, and again got the death penalty.

Eckberg's co-writer Combs, a freelance reporter, covered Rogers' Florida trial, and got the nagging feeling there was more to it than came out in the courtroom. So he asked the prosecutor, who pointed him to a large box of records dealing with Rogers' case.

"She said, 'Look, just take that box over there. The judge told me to dispose of these records, and I'm disposing of them by giving them to you,'" Eckberg said.

Combs then contacted Eckberg to see if he would brief him on Rogers' background and help him dig through the records. At first, Eckberg said, he was ready to stonewall Combs.

"Reporters -- we aren't known for sharing information with each other," he admitted. But on reflection, Eckberg -- who knew a lot about Rogers' Hamilton days, including his work as a drug informant for local police -- figured he had only two options: "I can tell him nothing, which I was kind of tempted to do... or I could tell him everything." He chose the second.

When he began digging into the box of records, Eckberg said, he realized he'd made the right decision; the treasure trove of documents provided a kind of "road map" of Rogers' travels and crimes. After plowing through the box, and organizing the facts it contained, he said, "I realized that we were the only two people in the world, for better or for worse, who were in a position to tell this story."

That story, in brief: In 1993, ex-convict Glen Rogers, 31, the product of a brutal and poverty-stricken childhood in Hamilton, was living and working with the elderly Mark Peters, a retired electrician who dabbled in restoring furniture.

Peters was last seen alive in October 1993; about three months later, acting on information from one of Rogers' brothers, police from Hamilton, aided by police volunteers from Kentucky, searched a Rogers family cabin in Lee County, Ky.

They found a body that forensics analysis and on-site clues -- including a raffle ticket from a Hamilton VFW, inscribed with Peters' initials, address and phone number -- suggested was almost certainly Peters. Rogers' brother informed police that Glen had told him he killed Peters accidentally.

Prosecutors in both Kentucky and Ohio, however, refused to file charges, based on difficulties in figuring out which state the murder took place in, and an insistence by Kentucky authorities that they did not know for sure the body was that of Peters.

"Well, they did know," Eckberg said.

Meanwhile Rogers had gone on the road, meeting and charming women and killing them. No one is clear on why he killed, though a defense psychologist at his Florida trial suggested that brain damage, caused by childhood traumas, repeated head injuries, and long-term drug and alcohol abuse, may have left Rogers delusional, paranoid and prone to explode in bursts of rage.

As the bodies of his victims mounted up, police began to put the clues together and search for Rogers, leading to his capture in Kentucky after a car chase. As of "Road Dog"'s publication date, he was on death row in Florida.

As the book points out, however, Rogers might have been caught before he killed all those women. He was stopped by police repeatedly after Peters' death, and let go "because there was no reason to hold him," Eckberg said. "This guy was a cop magnet."

Police in Los Angeles ignored repeated complaints by Peters' son that Rogers had stolen his identity and was using it. Rogers even went to jail in California for assaulting his girlfriend; when Hamilton detectives wanted to fly out to question him about Peters' death, their chief nixed the trip as too expensive.

Eckberg noted that there's evidence suggesting Rogers may have had at least five more identifiable victims, in addition to Mark Peters (Hamilton), Sandra Gallagher (Van Nuys, Calif.), Linda Price (Jackson, Miss.), Tina Cribbs (Tampa, Fla.), and Andy Sutton (Bossier City, La.). "A trail of bodies has followed Glen Rogers around his whole life," Eckberg said.

Rogers has been suspected, and placed in the vicinity of, other killings in Ohio and Kentucky. He himself has claimed at different times to have killed as many as 70 women, and he once suggested to his brother that he may have killed the residents of houses he had robbed.

"He used to tell his brother that he would go into houses, and if somebody came home, he wasn't the one that was surprised," Eckberg noted. "God knows how many people he killed." Rogers' brother also told police that the area around the remote Kentucky cabin where Peters was found was Glen's "killing fields," and when FBI agents searched the site, they found human remains in the ash of an outdoor fire pit.

"He didn't burn Mark Peters," Eckberg pointed out. "So whose human remains were in that fire pit?"

Eckberg, who graduated from OU in 1976 with an English degree, said he believes "there are lessons to be learned" from Rogers' case.

"As I look back, it's not so much the cops (at fault) as it is the prosecutors," he said. There was a disconnect at some point between the cops and the prosecutors in different jurisdictions." And, he said, given that the story was only put together after two journalists pulled it from a box of dusty paper, one has to wonder -- how many other Glen Rogers are out there?

"I think there are probably more cases like this than we want to talk about," Eckberg said.

Road Dog is published by Federal Point Publishing.

BMW Note:

My own research has revieled that Glen Rogers also 'dated' Nichole Simpson prior to her murder. This is something that the jury in the O.J. Simpson case was never told. Makes one wonder now doesn't it?

Bonnie,

Good afternoon.

I would like to request a favor of you.

Can you please take my picture/comments from your website. At a minimum, the pictures are my property and I hold the copyright privileges as well as my permission to continue posting them. If I expressly admit, as I do now, that I would like them removed - then that is my wish and evidence from this day forward that I do not wish them to be viewable.

Sincerely,

BMW Note:

And here's a little something from someone that I admire and respect a great deal:

"Many law enforcement officers have learned the hard way that it is a mistake to uncritically accept what an offender tells you."

"Psychopaths are chronic liars, even when they have no need or reason to lie. They have no understanding of, or concern for, the harm they cause others." - Roy Hazelwood / FBI Profiler

More Information:

On television and the silver screen, serial killers are usually white males and dysfunctional loners who really want to get caught. Or, they’re super-intelligent monsters who frustrate law enforcement at every turn.

According to a new publication from our National Center for the Analysis of Violent Crime—entitled Serial Murder: Multi-Disciplinary Perspectives for Investigators—serial killers are much different in real life.

According to the experts, there is no common thread tying serial killers together—no single cause, no single motive, no single profile. But there are some common "best practices" that they recommend for investigations:

For example:

Strong leadership throughout the chain of command that can withstand the external pressure sometimes brought to bear on serial murder cases by politicians, the victims' families, and the media;

Task forces that bring together agencies from the different jurisdictions to effectively combine expertise, resources, and information;

An automated case management system like the FBI’s Rapid Start that organizes and collates lead information so investigators don't get overwhelmed;

A team of crime analysts who can help investigators develop timelines of murders and backgrounds on suspects, highlight similar case elements, etc.

"Serial killers are different. They are rarely in a hurry. They are methodical in their carnage. Serial killers are the comets. They blaze through the night and disappear into the blackness only to return again and again to kill.

Organized serial killers, according to models developed by the FBI and other experts, target strangers and tend to travel some distance from home to kill. And prostitutes tend to be among the most likely victims in terms of serial killers, said Deborah Laufersweiler-Dwyer, associate professor of criminal justice at the University of Arkansas.

“Nobody's going to necessarily note someone picking up a prostitute and they tend to go with anyone easily,” she said. Research shows, she said, that organized serial killers are typically sociopaths who have a problem with authority. “They don't like rules, they think they can make up the rules as they go along,”

And here's a few more tid-bits that I have came across during my own work and research:

From The Cross-Country Killer by Joyce Spizer

"The jury briefly deliberated and then acquitted Simpson. He vowed to search for Nicole's killer, and as a matter of fact, another possible suspect did emerge not long afterward. He was angry, brutal, and quite vicious in the random murders he committed, and he always targeted beautiful women. He started in California, at least from what was known at the time. O.J. Simpson's trial was still in process when Glen Rogers became a murder suspect in a different incident not far away."

From the comment section of a web review concerning Glen Rogers:

May 31, 2010: "{The book} smooth operator is full of miss information. i am a survivor of glen rogers. my mother is *Tina Marie Cribbs. the bar was in gibsinton florida. it was called showtown or showtime. aprox 2 blocks from mall. grocery store was piggly wiggly. its been 15yrs since i lived there. i was raised with my mother a half brother. his name Damien VanDemark. i had a step father by the name of J.R Wilks. i was raised by my mother until 1month before her murder. i was sent to N.Y to live with father till end of the school year. needless to say i never got the chance to go back. where did they get the info for these books. probably from my money grubbing grandmother mary dickie/genson. since my mothers murder i havent been able to find my brother or grandmother. she didnt want anything to do with me and didnt want my brother around me. my grandmother was on mauri and the leeza show."

Sept. 21, 2010: "As a juror on this trial I found this man to be incredibly inhuman. He made no eye contact and it was like looking into space watching him. He left 2 boys without a Mother and it seems like one ended up totally uprooted from his brother thanks to this murderer. This to should never have happened. I hope survivor is doing as well as he can in spite of what has happened to him. No child should ever have to loose a parent this way. Its been alot of years but the pain will always remain. One day this murderer might see the gas chamber which is what this Jury and Judge said he should see happen to him. He should not still be on death row. "

More Quotes From:

The Cross-Country Killer by Joyce Spizer

Chapter 15: Nicole's "Play-toy"

Spizer indicates that Rogers met the former Mrs. Simpson when he was painting her house, and she invited him inside. She may have wanted him as a new "toy" because she "was the original party girl."

They went to clubs together not long before she died, and there were photos taken of the two of them together the night before. Rogers' brother Clay claimed he'd received a phone call in which Rogers claimed to be with Nicole at that very moment. He supposedly said, "This lady is loaded and I'm gonna take her down." He later claimed that they'd been dating but that she'd "dropped" him to go back to O.J. O.J. came over that night and hugged her. Then Rogers committed the double murder and let O.J. be arrested.

Spizer says a blond strand of hair was found beneath Nicole's body that was not hers and that some DNA found at the scene did not match O.J. or the victims.

Spizer takes great pains in "The Cross Country Killer" to support the notion that Rogers knew Nicole and possibly killed her.

Glen Rogers received a second death sentence from California in 1999. He was returned that same year to Florida’s death row, where he remains today. Before being shipped back to Florida, where prisoner’s are not permitted to have internet service unlike those in California, Rogers mantained a website that constantly lashes out at the legal system.

Edna Rogers, Glen’s mother, passed away in November 2006.

Quotes From 'Dark Dream"

by Roy Hazelwood & Stephen G. Michaud

"The most resourceful, destructive, and elusive of all deviant offenders is the ritualistic sexual sadist."

"The sexual sadist is a meticulous planner, spending inordinate amounts of time inside his own head. He may devote months or even years imagining his intended crime, turning it over in his mind, playing with it, as one might examine a prism in a sunbeam, studying all the different ways it refracts the light."

"Sexual sadists are sexually voracious, indiscriminate, capable in many instances of coupling with humans of either sex or any age, as well as animals and inanimate objects as the opportunity presents itself."

"the key to" (one sexual sadists) "success was patient and obsessive planning. In some cases he invested up to two years in preparation before carrying out an assault."

"The fact that some of the most heinous offenders operating in North America had no arrest history is a strong testament to their planning and intelligence."

"Thirteen" (of the study group) "were married and fifteen were fathers. Nine of them committed incest with their children.

One of the men in the survey, Gerald Gallego, is believed responsible for ten murders. In addition to his crimes against strangers, Gallego reportedly forced himself on his daughter from her childhood well into her teens. On one occasion he allegedly assaulted her anally as a birthday present! Another time he is said to have sexually assaulted both his daughter and a female friend who was visiting."

(Some of the study group) "had a history of voyeurism, obscene phone calls and exhibitionism."

Another Article About Glen Rogers

Smooth Operator: By Bill Hewitt

He was, if nothing else, impeccably put together. Always dressed neatly in pressed jeans and a long-sleeve collared shirt, Glen Rogers wore cowboy boots that matched his belt, which was invariably clasped with a handsome buckle. His beard was perfectly trimmed—the better, it seemed, to set off a pair of piercing green eyes. And it was obvious that he applied generous amounts of spray to his long, blond hair. "You could tell," says Rein Keener, 24, a bartender at McRed's in Van Nuys, Calif., "because when he moved his head, all of his hair moved in the same direction."

Rogers, 33, also spoke with a courtly southern accent. He was a charmer and he knew it. One night, when Rogers was listening to the jukebox, Keener asked him if he liked country music. "Yeah," he said, "and beautiful women." She had to smile. Once, he brought her a bouquet of peach-colored roses.

On Sept. 28, around 10 p.m., Rogers asked Keener if he could have a ride home. He'd walked the mile from his apartment to McRed's, he said, because he didn't like to drink and drive. Keener agreed, since, after all, Rogers had become a regular customer. Flashing a roll of bills, he would often buy rounds of drinks for the house. On this evening, Keener, a student at Pasadena City College, had her car keys in hand and was heading out the door with Rogers when an acquaintance called her over for a last game of darts. Suddenly, standing there playing while Rogers waited for her to finish, she had a feeling that something was wrong. "I'm a petite woman, and he's a really large man," she thought. "Anything could happen." She told Rogers that she was sorry but she had changed her mind about the ride. Furious, he yelled at her and stalked away.

Keener scarcely thought about the incident until a few days later when L.A. homicide detectives visited her and showed her a picture of a woman. It was Sandra Gallagher, 33, who had been at McRed's and who had been found strangled to death in her burning pickup the morning after Keener's blowup with Rogers. In that instant, Keener was sure she knew who was responsible. For the next six weeks, until Rogers was captured following a high-speed car chase through rural Kentucky on Nov. 13, Keener would keep a .38 strapped to her waist for protection. During that time, Rogers would allegedly become if not one of the most prolific serial killers in the nation's history, one of its most insidiously frightening. He is believed to have disarmed his female victims with his charm, then cut them down—four in all—one after another.

To many in Rogers's hometown of Hamilton, Ohio, the bloody turn of events was not entirely surprising. One of at least seven children of Claude Rogers, a paper-company worker, and his wife, Edna, Glen had been raised in the blue-collar town 30 miles north of Cincinnati and lived there until the early '80s. His first real brush with trouble came when he was thrown out of school in ninth grade for reasons that have not been disclosed. Eventually he began to run up an extensive police record, including arrests for forgery and disorderly conduct and dealing in stolen goods. Aside from construction jobs, his only steady employment was as a cab driver. His colleagues at the cab company recall him as a drinker and drug user.

Police in Hamilton acknowledge that Rogers did little jail time for his crimes, partly because he had mastered the art of conning authorities. "He knows how to talk his way out of trouble," says Hamilton police detective Dan Pratt. "He knows the legal system." (Rogers was the first collar Pratt made as a rookie cop, back in 1987, on charges of breaking and entering.) Like any professional criminal, says Pratt, "Rogers never admits he's guilty."

Shortly after Rogers left junior high school, his teenage girlfriend Debi Ann Nix became pregnant. Their first child, Clinton, was born in 1979, and they were married a year later. A second son, Jonathan, was born in 1981. Around that time, Rogers headed to California with the boys, and later Nix, following him. In 1983 he and Nix were divorced; her whereabouts, as well as that of Clinton and Jonathan, are unknown.

After leaving Hamilton, Rogers continued to visit from time to time, sometimes staying with his widowed mother. Though they have never been able to prove it, police strongly suspect that Rogers may also have committed a murder on one of his return trips to town. The victim was Mark Peters, a 71-year-old retired electrician who had once shared a house with Rogers. Peters's badly decomposed body was found in January 1994 at a cabin near Beattyville, Ky., belonging to the Rogers family. Because of the lack of physical evidence linking him to the killing—authorities could not even determine the cause of death—Rogers was never charged. His step-niece Lynn Clontz, for one, doesn't believe he had anything to do with Peters's death—or any other. "Stealing a VCR, for example, is a far cry from being a serial killer," she says. "That's a big line to cross, and I don't see him crossing it."

Police see things differently. Somehow four women Rogers encountered over the course of six weeks ended up brutally murdered. (Police in California and elsewhere are also looking at past unsolved murders to see if he might be a suspect.) Rogers—who had been living in L.A. for about 18 months and supporting himself by doing construction and maintenance jobs—apparently zeroed in on Sandra Gallagher after Keener's rejection. Gallagher, a divorced mother of three, was in the bar to celebrate winning $1,250 in the state lottery. When Rogers first approached her that night, she brushed him off. Later, however, she became more amenable and eventually sat chatting at his table. At 1:30 a.m. she apparently agreed to give him a lift home. A few hours later her burning truck, with her body inside, was found in a nearby parking lot. "I know that was supposed to be me," says Keener. "It was going to be my night."

It took the L.A. police several days to get a lead on Rogers. By that time he had already boarded a Greyhound bus and headed east. Arriving in Jackson, Miss., around Oct. 1, Rogers moved into the local Holiday Inn. On Oct. 14 he was at the Mississippi State Fair in Jackson when he met Linda Price, 34, a single mother of two. For Price, at least, it was love at first sight. "Linda's eyes lit up when she talked about him, like she'd never talked about anybody in her life," her mother, Carol Wingate, later told a reporter. Wingate had no trouble seeing Rogers's appeal. "You don't say a man is beautiful, but he is beautiful," said Wingate. "And charm? That isn't the word. He hugged me and told me, 'You're the prettiest mother and grandmother I've ever seen.' He made me feel so good." A few weeks later, though, Wingate was unable to reach her daughter on the phone. On Nov. 3, Jackson police found Linda dead in an apartment she had just taken with Rogers.

She had been stabbed four times in the back and chest, and her throat had been cut.

On Nov. 4, Rogers arrived by Greyhound in Tampa and registered at a local motel. The next afternoon he was sitting in the Showtown bar in the Tampa suburb of Gibsonton, where he had once worked for a carnival, when *Tina Cribbs, 34, walked in with four friends. Cribbs, a divorced mother of two, worked three jobs—as a hotel maid, bookkeeper and short-order cook—to make ends meet. Rogers bought her and her friends a round of drinks. Shortly before 4 p.m. he asked if he could get a lift a mile or so to his car. Cribbs, who was planning to meet her mother, Mary Dicke, for a barbecue, agreed. The last thing she said as she walked out of the bar was, "Tell my mom I'll be right back."

Police surmise that once they were in Cribbs's car, Rogers pulled a gun or a knife. Whatever the case, the manager of the motel where Rogers was staying saw him drive off the next morning in Cribbs's Ford Festiva, leaving a Do Not Disturb sign on the door of his room. A day later, a maid found Cribbs's stabbed, fully-clothed corpse slumped in the tub of his room.

At this point, Rogers drove to Bossier City, La., where he hooked up with Andy Sutton, 37, whom he met in a bar called A Touch of Class. Two days later, Sutton's roommate returned to find her stabbed to death on her waterbed. By then, authorities were broadcasting the fact that Rogers was wanted in connection with several killings and that he preyed on women in bars. His face was on every TV screen and in every newspaper.

His cover blown, Rogers was on the run. Obviously it was going to be difficult now to get close to another victim. "That's his way of power over people," says Dan Pratt. "He isn't the type to abduct somebody and then rape and kill them. He likes to lure them in, sweet-talk them and then commit his crimes." Ultimately he was caught on the outskirts of Richmond, Ky., heading, he said, for his hometown of Hamilton. After his capture, Rogers at first said he was responsible for some 70 murders, then denied that he had ever killed anyone. In a jailhouse telephone interview from Richmond, where he is being held pending extradition proceedings, he declared his innocence and dismissed the police questions about his encounters with women in a way that was as chilling as it was blithe. "I've traveled in bars all over the world," he boasted. "A name doesn't mean anything to me. I've known women all over the world...I have no idea who's who."

Tony,

Thanks for writing. I cannot change anyone else's opinions concerning Glen Rogers, but have posted your comments on his page so people can choose for themselves. I am not the person who said he dated Nicole Simpson, and to be honest, it doesn't matter to me one way or the other. Glen Rogers means absolutely nothing to me and the only reason I have a page on my web site about him at all is because his 'connection' to Nicole does in fact appear to fulfill a dream that my cousin had.

As far as John Douglas, Robert Ressler or other FBI Profilers are concerned. I'm not much on credentials. I too am a 'profiler of sorts,' but work from a different perspective than they do with my profiling being more of a projection or prediction of the killer's next move or next strike.

I guess it's not the credentials of Douglas and Ressler that I admire as much as it is their integrity. Character and integrity have always been of utmost importance to me, and I've never given a lot of thought to education or credentials. I've seen far too many people give of their time and effort that had neither education nor credentials, and I have seen them accomplish things that those with education and credentials would not lift a finger to do because there was no money, no fame, no glory in it for them.

You mention the killer's perspective ..... there again, I'm really not much concerned with their perspective because I'm more interested in the victim's perspective and those who remain after their loved one has been snatched from them by a damned killer that had no more reason to kill than the average person who is working their guts out to try to provide a better living and a better place to live.

As for getting involved with 'inmates,' as you do ..... well, I can't say I'm much interested in that either, although I do have some interest in inmates that I believe have been wrongfully convicted ..... innocent people sitting in prison perhaps for the rest of their natural lives for things they didn't do while the real culprit roams our streets freely. Yes, these people I do have some interest in and some compassion for, and I am really thankful for the Innocence projects that have sprung up across our nation. We need a lot more of them.

I have never interviewed an inmate, but I certainly have sat in on court cases and read court room transcripts and researched cases to assist appeals attorneys in showing that their client was wrongfully convicted ..... and I have done it all free of charge. My web site hosts hundreds of murder and missing person cases ........ all posted free of charge.

There are a few cases here locally that have become my pet cases ...... I'd still like to know who gunned down our Chief Deputy Ray Clark in his own home back in 1981. What cowardly piece of trash used the cover of darkness and murdered my cop? My cop, I can hear you saying ..... yes, my cop. He was employed by Washington County Ohio. I live here. That makes him 'my cop.'

But no, I didn't know the man personally, never met him or anyone from his family.

The same can be said about State Trooper Jackie D. McCrady. I didn't know him, have never had a conversation with the man in my life, but after sitting in on the trial and then reading EVERY piece of paper, every court transcript, and taking it upon myself to re-enact court room testimony {with volunteers, I might add} I am still convinced the man is innocent.

Chris Sturm is another case ...... a 12 year old kid sitting in prison for God only knows how long for the murder of his own grandmother and aunt ...... a horrible crime, and if he committed it, then he should rot in prison, but I'd sure like for someone to explain to me how in the hell this kid shot 2 people point blank range with a 410 shotgun, left blood spatter everywhere including the ceiling, but not a drop on himself or his clothing, and pray tell how the hell did someone else's fingerprint get on the trigger of that gun --- and whose finger print was it?

Some have said I might be seen as a fanatic ....... maybe so, if you consider the truth and actual justice fanatical , then go right ahead and label me a fanatic. Call it an obsession, call it whatever you wish to call it because I really don't give a hoot. I call it seeking the truth, and I really don't care how many credentials anyone has, if it doesn't quack and it doesn't waddle then don't tell me it's a damned duck! I guess I'm like Judge Judy - don't pee on my leg and then tell me it's raining!

And, on the other hand, when I see with my own eyes a pervert that is stalking females from 9 to 90 as his former mother-in-law said of him; and I see this weirdo getting by with all kinds of things that other people would go to jail for; and I know that he tried to smother a woman to death and told a cop that he tried to kill her because she had not done her 'chores' for the day; and when I know what he's capable of because I have interviewed his victims and I have documented his whereabouts and his weird behavior, I can't help but believe that someday, sooner or later, someone with integrity and character is going to step forward and help those far less fortunate who cannot help themselves, and this thing will run out of luck and hopefully out of victims. If that is an FBI agent, then so be it. If it's some other officer of the law, then that's okay too. I've done enough background work to save them a fortune, and it's all theirs for the taking --- 100% free of charge.

Note:

The following dream probably should have headed this page, but for some reason I never got around to adding it until today.

This dream was my 'only' interest in the murders of Nicole Brown and Ron Goldman. I live in Ohio and never knew either person. I was never a big fan of football {or any other sport} and never knew {or wanted to know} O.J. Simpson.

I do some psychic detective work and some dream interpretation work. I am not a police officer or even a private detective, so I was never concerned with the investigation or anything involving the actual case.

When Glen Rogers was arrested, and charged with being a serial killer, I recongized the dream that my cousin had just hours before the double homicide, and I went in search of 'confirmation information.' That is how this page came about. I have no interest in Glen Rogers - do NOT know the man; have never spoken or corresponded with him, and have no interest whatsoever in him.

Here's the dream as recounted recently to a person I was corresponding with ---

Mary's Dream

She and her black freind James were walking across the bridge into Belpre {Ohio} where she lived. They came off the end of the bridge and James went up Main Street while Mary turned and walked down Washington Boulevard.

Mary saw a man coming toward her. He had long blond hair and wore a long trench type coat. It was dark but even so she could see the man was tall, well built and rather handsome .... and yet she felt apprehensive as she got closer and closer to him.

She turned and glanced back toward James, but he was going on up Main Street and paying no further attention to her.

As she turned back to continue on her way she realized the man in the trench coat had gotten very close to her.

She tried to smile as she saw the man looking directly at her and was about to say "good evening,' when he suddenly grabbed her and began stabbing her! She tried to scream but couldn't as he slapped a hand over her mouth. He was far larger than she and she could feel him lifting her off the ground as he stabbed her repeatedly. {end of dream}

Mary awoke screaming - "I've been stabbed."

"end of dream"

Mary Jo was about 5'3" and had shoulder length blond hair. (Mary passed away in 2006 from cancer.)

Within hours of this dream the murder of Nicole Simpson hit the news and I knew exactly who the dream was about. I just didn't know who the black man named James was - until I researched O.J. Simpson and discovered the J stands for James. Mary Jo had no black, male friends, and didn't even have any white friends named James.

I didn't know who Glen Rogers was during this time period, and wouldn't hear of him until sometime later ..... however, that did not stop me from writing to O.J.'s attorneys and telling them that O.J. was innocent! I sent them the dream, and told them I didn't know anyone involved in the case in any way, shape or form, but that I knew in my heart that O.J. Simpson was an innocent man.

Sometime later I heard about Glen Rogers. I saw his picture and immediately recalled Mary Jo's dream. I took the picture to Belpre and showed it to my cousin, who said she thought that was in fact the man from her dream.

Mary Jo's dream had in fact been a prophetic dream that told us that O.J. Simpson was an innocent man.

And of course, being the type of person that I am I couldn't keep my mouth shut. And I still can't. I think what they did to O.J. is a national disgrace. How can a person be found not guilty in a criminal trial and yet be held financially responsible for the wrongful death of which they have been vindicated? How? This is America. I said it then, and I say it now ..... that isn't right and it should never have happened. Every lawyer in this nation should have been in an uproar ...... but no, they discovered a way to make even more money because they don't really care who is innocent or who is guilty. All they care about is making money.

Now I admit, I don't have a lot of money; don't have many credentials as Xxxx Xxxxx has already told me, but there's one thing I do have and that is integrity. I will never stand in silence and watch an innocent person accused of {much less tried for} something they didn't do.
