Family loves and hopes as Bluefield brothers facing murder case
In Bluefield a mother of nine boys and five girls mourns her son James Curtis Rogers killed in January 2002 and another son Grant Rogers Jr. pleads guilty to second degree murder. The family pleads for rehab over retribution, noting drugs strained their clan and that two brothers killed each other in a tragic repeat of Cain and Abel. The judge urges mercy and rehabilitation while the family recalls a long history of loss, service, and resilience.
