Serial Killer Has 6-Word Message for President Trump in His Final Moments Before Execution

A suspected serial killer who spent decades on death row had a message for President Donald Trump in his final moments before his execution this week.

Glen Rogers, 62, also known as “The Casanova Killer,” was executed by lethal injection on Thursday, May 15, according to reports from the Associated Press, NBC News and CBS News. He was pronounced dead at Florida State Prison near Starke at 6:16 p.m., the outlets reported. 

Rogers was handed down a death sentence for the 1995 murder of 34-year-old Tina Marie Cribbs, a mother-of-two who was found dead in a Tampa motel room, per the outlets. He was also convicted in California of the 1995 killing of Sandra Gallagher and sentenced to death, but remained incarcerated in Florida. He met both women at bars prior to their murders.

In his last words prior to his execution, Rogers shared a message for President Donald Trump.

“President Trump, keep making America great,” he said after thanking his wife, the AP reported. “I’m ready to go.”

Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis last month signed Rogers’ death warrant. Rogers had three failed attempts to overturn his guilty verdict.

Prosecutors said in a motion previously obtained by PEOPLE that Rogers was found driving Cribbs’ car in Kentucky one week after her murder. Cribbs was found with stab wounds in a motel room rented by Rogers. After that arrest, Rogers told police he killed 70 women, though he was only ever convicted of two murders.

Authorites said Rogers strangled Gallagher, a mother-of-three, after meeting her at a bar in Van Nuys, Calif., NBC News reported, adding that the killing took place weeks before Cribbs’ murder.

His brother later claimed that Rogers said he was responsible for the 1994 murders of Nicole Brown Simpson and Ron Goldman. The Los Angeles Police Department dismissed that claim.

Rogers later became the subject of a made-for-TV movie starring Mena Suvari as Brown Simpson.

Rogers’ death marks the fifth execution in Florida this year, the AP reported.
