As reported by ABC News, Glen Edward Rogers told his brother and sister that he met Nicole Brown Simpson and noted that she was wealthy. He also allegedly mentioned that he planned to “take her down” on at least one occasion. In a later interview with criminal profiler Anthony Meoli, Rogers claimed O.J. Simpson hired him to steal a pair of earrings he gave his former wife while they were married. According to Rogers, O.J. ordered him to kill Nicole during the robbery.
Rogers also provided specific details about the deaths of Brown Simpson and Goldman, which further supported his claim that he committed the brutal murders. ABC News reports that in addition to knowing details about the murders, Rogers was able to draw a detailed picture of the knife he claims to have used to kill the victims. Meoli said the picture closely resembled the weapon that was likely used to commit the murders but was never found.
According to ABC News, filmmaker David Monaghan said he believes the information provided by Rogers’ brother, combined with his confession to the criminal profiler, should have been enough to prompt an official investigation into his possible involvement.
GLEN EDWARD ROGERS REPORTEDLY CONFESSED TO THE MURDERS
ABC News reports Ronald Goldman’s father, Fred, disagrees. When asked about the information presented in the documentary film, Fred said, “The fact of the acquittal at the hands of the jury will never wash away this murder from the hands of O.J. Simpson, no matter how many Glen Rogers pop up on the media radar screen.” Elsewhere, ABC News analyst Dan Abrams admitted, “The filmmaker has created a compelling case.” However, he said Glen Edward Rogers’ confession did not negate the sheer volume of evidence proving O.J. Simpson was directly responsible for the murders of Nicole Brown Simpson and Ronald Goldman.
Rogers was ultimately arrested six weeks after Brown Simpson and Goldman were found murdered. Law enforcement officials said he went on a crime spree and is suspected of more than 70 murders throughout the United States (via ABC News). Rogers was convicted of several murders and was subsequently sentenced to death in both California and Florida. However, he was never arrested and indicted in Brown Simpson and Goldman’s deaths, nor was he mentioned as a person of interest in those crimes.
