Glen Edward Rogers (born July 15, 1962),[1] is an American convicted serial killer. He was also convicted of related crimes in Florida and California, such as armed robbery, grand theft auto, and arson.

Also known as "The Cross Country Killer" or "The Casanova Killer", he was convicted of first-degree murder at two separate trials in the deaths of two women (the first in Florida in 1997 and the second in California in June 1999). He is a suspect in numerous other murders throughout the United States. After a crime spree that began on September 28, 1995, with Rogers's first authoritatively established murder, he was featured on the FBI Ten Most Wanted Fugitives list.[2]

He was sentenced to death in both Florida and California. He has been incarcerated since 1997 at Union Correctional Institution in Raiford, Florida, where he is held on death row.

According to a 2012 cable-TV documentary, Rogers claimed that he committed the 1994 murders of Nicole Brown Simpson and Ron Goldman. He has never been charged or tried for these murders; the Los Angeles Police Department said they had more confidence someone else did it.[3]
