But it was his last words that stunned onlookers.
“President Trump, keep making America great. I’m ready to go,” Rogers said.
He also thanked his wife, who had visited him in prison earlier that day under a rare compassionate visitation request often linked to end-of-life legal permissions and mental health evaluations.
But then, in a cryptic final message, he added:
“In the near future, your questions will be answered.”
The chilling statement has since sparked speculation online, with many wondering if Rogers took undisclosed confessions or knowledge of other crimes to the grave—possibly impacting ongoing legal investigations and cold case reviews still on file with state-funded forensic labs.
