Man Charged With Murder After Alabama Woman Burned Following Vehicle Striking

Autumn Paige Strickland, a 38-year-old Alabama woman reported missing in mid-May, was allegedly killed after being intentionally struck twice by Logan Rogers, 28, with his vehicle. Video evidence shows Rogers first hit Strickland with his 2012 Kia Soul, circled back to strike her again, then returned about 30 minutes later with a pickup truck to remove her body, which was later found burned in a barrel on his property. Rogers, who was awaiting trial for threatening his parents, was arrested at his home and charged with murder, with the initial attempted murder charge upgraded following the discovery of Strickland's remains. Authorities noted Strickland may have had a condition impairing her judgment, though the nature of her relationship with Rogers remains unclear. He is held without bond, with an Aniah’s Law hearing pending, amid concerns over his history of domestic violence. The case prompted an extensive investigation involving community tips, forensic analysis, and video surveillance corroborating the charges against Rogers.
