Description

Known as "Oregon's most prolific serial killer," the Molalla Forest Killer case is a rough one.  These are the stories of the victims of Dayton Leroy Rogers, a monster who should have been locked up permanently years before he would be linked to the murders of 8 women in the summer of 1987.
