A new documentary about to be released on Discovery focuses on a serial killer who grew up in the Tri-State.

Glen Rogers is from Hamilton.

He is tied to five different murders in five different states.

However, he claims to have murdered more than 70 people including O.J. Simpson's former wife, Nicole, and Ron Goldman.
 
Receipts show Rogers was working as a housepainter in Los Angeles in 1994. Family members claimed Rogers told them that he was working for Nicole Brown Simpson, and that he said she was rich and he was going to "take her down."

After Nicole Brown Simpson and Ron Goldman were murdered in June of 1994, Glen embarked on a cross-country killing spree that landed him on the FBI's 10 Most Wanted List.

"My Brother The Serial Killer" digs into Roger's past to reveal how he became a smooth-talking killer.  He is now awaiting execution on Florida's death row.

Glen's brother Clay tries desperately to explain Glen's actions in the documentary: his violent upbringing, sexual abuse during juvenile detention, lost love, drug abuse, and mental illness.

The documentary airs Wednesday, Nov. 21 at 9 p.m. on Discovery.

so oj was all mad and going to kick nicoles butt, walks up and finds them murdered, then he panics? surely the dream team of lawyers he had could have come up with a story like this at the time of the trial.

Spare me the foolishness. People always want to blame their upbringing as the reason for killing people. If, and I say IF he killed people, he did it because he wanted to and enjoyed the thrill of doing it. He can't blame anyone but himself. His brother can try and place the blame on his momma, his pappa, his foster parents or abuse or whatever. Doesn't fly. He should be dead and gone before now, if he killed folks.

How is it that the OJ Simpson connection is just now comming out? It might have been report before but it had to be a footnote that only people watching the case very clolsy knew about. Is it possible OJ really was innocent?
