A convicted killer once linked to the OJ Simpson murder case used his final moments to send a cryptic message and a shoutout to Donald Trump before his execution. Glen Rogers, who claimed to have killed up to 70 people, was put to death by lethal injection Thursday at Florida State Prison.

Rogers was pronounced dead at 6:16 pm after receiving a three-drug cocktail, according to corrections officials. In his final words, he thanked his wife, who had visited earlier that day. He also offered a chilling remark, “In the near future, your questions will be answered.” And his last words were, “President Trump, keep making America great. I’m ready to go.” Rogers lay still as the injection began, with only his mouth slightly open. He made no further movements. A staffer later shook him by the shoulders and called his name to check for signs of consciousness, reported The Associated Press.

MURDER SPREET Tina Marie Cribbs, a 34-year-old mother of two, had met Rogers at a bar in Tampa shortly before her death. She was found stabbed in a motel room and Rogers was caught days later in Kentucky driving her vehicle after a car chase. Rogers had also been convicted in California for killing another woman weeks earlier, Sandra Gallagher, a 33-year-old mom of three. He strangled Gallagher after meeting her at a bar in the 1995 killing in Van Nuys. Authorities had once eyed Rogers in several other unsolved murders across the US, though he was never convicted in those cases. He once told police he had killed about 70 people, but later recanted. Rogers gained wider attention after a 2012 documentary, My Brother the Serial Killer, raised questions about his possible involvement in the 1994 stabbing deaths of Nicole Brown Simpson and Ron Goldman. The film featured his brother Clay and a profiler who had corresponded with Rogers.

President Trump, keep making America great. I’m ready to go. Glen Rogers Despite the speculation, LAPD shut down any suggestion that Rogers was tied to the infamous murders. “We know who killed Nicole Brown Simpson and Ron Goldman. We have no reason to believe that Mr. Rogers was involved,” police said in a statement at that time. OJ Simpson, who was acquitted in a highly publicized trial, was later found liable in a civil suit. He served prison time on unrelated charges and died in April 2024 at age 76 after a cancer battle.

ROGER THE KIILER Rogers, originally from Hamilton, Ohio, 45 minutes from Cincinnati, targeted women with similar traits. They were in their 30s, red-haired and petite. The US Supreme Court denied his final appeal Wednesday with no comment. His attorneys had pushed for life in prison, arguing that new child trafficking laws show past abuse should be weighed more heavily. That was rejected.
