Glenn Edward Rogers, known as the “Kasanova Killer,” was executed by lethal injection in Florida on May 15, 2025, after spending 28 years on death row. His brutal crimes left a trail of devastation across multiple states, and his final words stirred emotions among victims’ families and witnesses alike.
Rogers, who claimed to have committed over 70 murders, had a troubled upbringing in Hamilton, Ohio. Born into chaos, he was expelled from school by 16 and married at 17. His life spiraled into violence and crime, leading to a notorious killing spree in the 1990s.
His first known victim, Mark Peters, a 71-year-old family friend, vanished shortly after Rogers moved in with him. Investigators later discovered Peters’ remains hidden in a hunting cabin in Kentucky, revealing the chilling nature of Rogers’ betrayal. This murder marked the beginning of a horrific series of killings.
In 1995, Rogers murdered Sandra Gallagher in California, followed by Linda Price in Mississippi, and Tina Marie Cribs in Florida. Each crime displayed his calculated methods, targeting women who seemed vulnerable. Witnesses linked him to the scenes, but he evaded capture for months, moving from state to state.
Finally apprehended in Kentucky after a police chase, Rogers faced trials in Florida and California, receiving death sentences for his heinous acts. His claims of involvement in high-profile murders, including those of Nicole Brown Simpson and Ron Goldman, were met with skepticism by authorities.
As his execution approached, Rogers requested a final meal of pizza, chocolate cake, and soda. In his last moments, he addressed his loved ones and victims’ families, promising answers to their questions. His final words, directed to President Trump, echoed a chilling determination.
At 6:16 p.m., Glenn Rogers was pronounced dead, leaving a legacy of horror and unanswered questions. His execution marks the end of a dark chapter in American criminal history, but the scars of his actions will linger in the hearts of many.
