Robert “Bob” Leroy Rogers; phony dead POW

| July 29, 2016

Robert Leroy Rogers

The Panama City News Herald tells the story of Robert “Bob” Leroy Rogers who told an elderly neighbor and Air Force veteran that he had been incorrectly listed as deceased from his time in communist POW camps in Vitnam and how he’d used that status to fight against drug lords in Central America, because only dead people can fight drug lords, I guess.

Anyway, because he was legally dead, the government couldn’t pay him until the issue was cleared up. So Rogers convinced his elderly neighbor to pay his property taxes – I guess if you’re dead, that doesn’t exempt you from taxes.

Eventually, Lipovsky became suspicious that although Rogers couldn’t seem to get his money from the military, he was receiving disability. Later, police reported, some people who knew Rogers in New Hampshire contacted Lipovsky to alert him he might be getting duped.

When officers asked Rogers about the borrowed money, they said he admitted to being misleading and said although he he was enlisted in the military, he was never deployed.

All-in-all, Rogers took Lipovsky for more than $18,000 – but, you know, stolen valor is a victimless crime.

Scumbag.

He was enlisted? yeah, I bet not unless we see a FOIA and even if that, I bet he’s a basic washout, dickstepper or whatever that never made it through a full enlistment or past E-3.
Go ahead, bet me.
LOL
😀 😀

I don’t know? he looks dead to me! at least from the neck up!

Whoooooo Hee!

Someone beat that guy with an Extra Ugly stick!

F@ckYoCouch

Nah. It is a result of him waging a one man war on drugs… one snort at a time.

Ex-PH2

Are his eyes on crooked or is that just him?

What a fish story!

This is an illustration of why I so enjoy chasing these phony military types. In nearly every case, this is but one of the things they are doing wrong. This turd has bilked a naive neighbor with his lies.

In some states, if you pay the property taxes for a certain number of years, you now own the property.

But, if you get duped into giving your neighbor the money so he can pay his taxes, not so much.
“Later, police reported, some people who knew Rogers in New Hampshire contacted Lipovsky to alert him he might be getting duped”? Might be? I wonder what clued them in.

ChipNASA

Well, he sure has let himself go…..

Miserable ugly phony fuckstain…

For completeness: DPAA maintains by-name lists of POWs/MIAs from Vietnam who are Accounted-For (returned alive or remains returned/recovered) and Unaccounted-For (KIA/Body Not Recovered or Missing and Presumed Dead). Those lists may be found at:

http://www.dpaa.mil/portals/85/Documents/VietnamAccounting/pmsea_acc_p_name.pdf

http://www.dpaa.mil/portals/85/Documents/VietnamAccounting/pmsea_una_p_name.pdf

No individual with the last name “Rogers” appears on DPAA’s “Accounted-For” list from Vietnam.

On DPAA’s “Unaccounted-For” list from Vietnam, three individuals with the last name “Rogers” appear:

1. SN Billy Lee Rogers, USN, of Gary, IN. He was lost in South Vietnam on 1 December 1969.
2. Maj. Charles Edward Rogers, USAF, also of Gary IN. He was lost in Laos on 4 May 1967.
3. PFC Edward Francis Rogers, USMC, of Roslindale, MA. He was lost in South Vietnam on 12 March 1968.

None of them have the same name this liegende Scheiße Kopf fraudster. The names aren’t even particularly close.

Screw this worthless low-life bastard.

Speaking of that, I’d be hard pressed to believe he’s even old enough to have been in Vietnam.

About the same age as Raul Medina? (roughly)

Enlisted maybe mid to late Seventies.

Claw

Guess I should have read the article.

Age 61 now, born 1955?

Do the math. Pretty hard to have been captured in 1973 at age 18.

Hondo

Could have been born in Aug 1954. That could theoretically have put him in Vietnam in late 1972.

Still, his name does not match anyone who was ever POW/MIA/otherwise Unaccounted-For in Vietnam. So regardless, he’s a lying sack of crap – and a damn con man. Screw him.

Claw

Roger on the Screw him.

Up, down and twice on Sundays.

Or maybe he was a time traveler like E-1 over 20 Gary Briggs.

SFC D

Is that Alec Baldwin?

USMCMSgt(Ret)

^^^^ You beat me to it.

(Funny as hell because that’s exactly what I was thinking!)

AZtoVA

If Alec Baldwin and Nick Nolte had a love child…..

Hondo

Don’t think so. I swear I can hear this jerk saying, “Alec, I AM your father . . . . “

MustangCryppie

BWAHAHAHAHA!

Giggle *snort*

Good thing I’ve learned to not drink while I’m reading these. I’da snorted coffee through my nose all over my keyboard.

Bill M

Yeah. I think I’ve finally learned to keep all liquids at least ten feet away from the computer when reading TAH.

Claw

Seeing that mugshot brings the Nick Nolte mugshot to mind.

Just another Turd in a striped suit.

David

Gawd, what a horrible looking corpse…someone bury him now. (Flashback to “Bring out yer dead!” in the Holy Grail.)

Martinjmpr

Are you sure he isn’t dead? Because that picture would not convince me otherwise.

HMCS(FMF) ret.

Enjoy being the “fresh fish” in the local poundhimintheassjail… and be sure to get your fill of cockmeat sammiches and tubesteak while in the hole, Booty Boy Bobby.

B Woodman

DAMN! Rode hard and put away extra wet.

ex-OS2

Fucking cocksucker.

I thought that mug shot was Hillary’s for a minute.

Forest Green

Looks like he fights the drug lords by using up all their product so it doesn’t hit the streets..

Hondo

Obligatory standing offer: if anyone can come up with the pertinent info on the tool (FirstName/MiddleName/LastName plus service plus approx dates plus DOB plus POB – OR Firstname/MI/LastName plus SSN) I’ll be happy to file the FOIA request and we’ll see precisely what he did in the military.

ChipNASA

I found this so far but it doesn’t jibe with the article.

“enlisted in the military, but he never deployed” sounds like a DEP dropper/non-ship to me.

But if he did spend any time on active duty, my bet is on a 57A-Duty Soldier at the Post Stockade.

Dude looks like The False Commander “Phony” Phil Monkress after a bender.

J K Ellis

Why does FLOR-DUHHHHHHH have so many shady a$$ phonies?

This POS needs to burn in Hell! Far to many real paid the ultimate sacrifice for this dirt bag to even be allowed bail. FUCK HIM with a 18 inch bayonet.

Green Thumb

Roger that.

Skippy

Crack Head ! ! !

Hope you burn in HELL !!!!!

So if Mr. Rogers is now back from the dead….did he take off his sweater and become a hard ass M D 20 20 heavy hitter? If that’s the original Mr. Rogers, I’d watch him close around children…..and farm animals. At one time he was so soft spoken that I’d have left my pet gerbil “Shitfobrains” in his custody while I went out bar hopping.
