The second recurring theme in Charles" life was the constant pressure put onto him by his own parents and his uncle's family to lead a life full of religion and devotion to God. This unyielding pressure forced Charles to become a reclusive guy as he matured, and caused him to resent his father even more for not protecting him from the wishes of other adult figures in the community. The third situation that he had to tolerate was his father's suspicious activity as one of Houston's top gambling bookmakers. Fred Rogers worked for the Marcello crime family, and he made a great deal of money for his Mafia boss employer as well as for the family. However, his lack of a retirement plan from years of working the same Houston scam forced Charles the son to bail his parents out of a mortgage that was far from paid. These three main factors had the most impact on the childhood of Charles Rogers, but they do not show the slightest motivation for Charles wanting to bludgeon his parents to death as a 43-year-old CIA operative. I have no idea how Charles Rogers would be driven to murder his parents based on those three conditions, other than the fact that Charles was holed up in his bedroom of his parents" home on this June 1965 morning (where he had lived since graduating college), and that his parents were annoying him on that particular day. In this 250-page book, almost 90 pages are spent talking about Charles Rogers" negative childhood experiences and him continually hating his parents. These feelings he had toward them were largely due to the three major childhood situations. The only other relevant considerations were the fact that he was an adult living at home, and that his mother and father often argued with each other. There is no physical evidence that Charles executed his parents. I agree that it is suspicious nobody has seen him since their deaths, and that the case should not be cleared until he has at least been questioned.
