NIH Scientist Martin Rogers Found Dead

September 6th, 2014

Via: NBC:

About two weeks after he went missing, police announced an NIH scientist has been found dead in his car.

Martin John Rogers, 54, left his Gaithersburg home around 7:30 a.m. on Aug. 21 to go to work. As he was leaving, he told his wife of 25 years that he was going to a meeting — but his co-workers said he never showed up to work that morning.

“This is like a bad dream that you read about in the newspaper, and if you tried to pick someone that would wander off like this and disappear, you would never pick my husband,” said Kelley Rogers, Martin’s wife.

Martin Rogers had worked at the National Institutes of Health for 15 years and specialized in tropical diseases.

Police said surveillance video captured Martin checking into a hotel in La Valle, Maryland, looking “stressed out.”

    Is there a wiki somewhere that collects all these, and summarises what happened? Whether the death was resolved cleanly, resolved as a suicide that happened with both legs broken and arms tied behind their back.. or whatever?

    Sometimes I see these and it seems a pity to have them float past to be forgotten.
