Execution Date Set for “Casanova Killer”

Glen Rogers, known as “The Casanova Killer” for his method of luring in his victims, is scheduled for execution on May 15, 2025, at Florida State Prison in Raiford. Convicted of murdering Tina Marie Cribbs in 1995, Rogers’ case remains a grim reminder of his predatory nature and the lasting impacts of his crimes on multiple families.

His execution has been extensively challenged by his attorneys, who argued that using the drug etomidate might inflict severe pain due to his blood disorder, porphyria. These claims, however, found little favor with both Florida and U.S. Supreme Courts. His previous execution sentence in California further cements his notoriety in the criminal world.

A Murderous Trail

Rogers’ trail of terror reportedly stretches across various states, including Florida and California. Despite claims of other high-profile involvements, such as the murders of Nicole Brown Simpson and Ron Goldman, authorities have remained skeptical, focusing on the crimes with corroborated evidence. Rogers’ voluntary confession of 70 murders left investigators concentrating on proven cases to substantiate his claims.

Rogers, dubbed by the media as the “Casanova Killer,” charmed his victims before robbing and ultimately murdering them. His spree began in Los Angeles on September 28, 1995, primarily targeting single mothers with reddish hair. Families like those of Randy Roberson and Mary Dicke have long awaited the closure that his execution may bring.

The Path to Justice

Despite repeated appeals, Rogers’ fate was sealed when Governor Ron DeSantis signed his death warrant after three denials in Florida courts. The families of his victims, including children, remain hopeful that justice will eventually provide solace. Rogers leaves behind two children from his first marriage, adding another layer to his complex personal history.

Mary Dicke, mother of the victim Cribbs, articulated her pain and resolution poignantly: “God is on my side. I hope he will remain on my side until I do see this done.”

As the date draws near, many hope that the legacy of terror left by the Casanova Killer will soon meet its end, providing a solemn end to nearly three decades of awaiting justice.
