Evangelist seeks custody to resurrect dead mother
Evangelist Daniel Aaron Rogers 41 refuses to bury his mother Gladys Rogers 80 who died of flu. He and his wife kept the body in dry ice at home for a week before transferring it to the Boone County jail. Rogers cites visions from Indonesia and a minister friend predicting her resurrection while authorities refuse a permit fearing bacterial spread. He plans to meet health officials seeking a defrost permit to move the body to Reed Springs Missouri for funeral director assistance.
