Gator Rogowski Eligable for Parole This Year

[markseven]

In the mid-eighties I must have had at least 4 Gator boards and saw him at the Del Mar Skate Ranch a few times and the Oceanside Street contest... What a shame that his life turned out the way it did.

Is eighteen years in jail enough for a rapist murderer?

Never heard of him until now but that's a pretty interesting story

I think my brother had one if his boards too. It was a one time thing, kid had some serious issues. I think if he maintains counseling, takes meds for his condition, and stays clean, ok. If he does anything violent again, game over.

I am sure the girls family feels different however. I know I would if it was personal.

[Huff]

I've sk8ed for 22 years now.. I've seen sk8ing in all it's phases and even worked in the industry (built sk8 parks and ran a few). All I can say is..

FUCK GATOR

Let him rot away. After learning the details of what he did, he should be locked away for life.

Agreed, pieces of shit like that don't deserve a second chance. He should have got the death sentence imo, why have him live and waste hard earned tax dollars in prison. If this dude gets out who's to say he won't go after his ex?!?!?

[Jordan325iC]

Only been skateboarding for 8 years, so he was way before my time. I know his story though.


Fuck him. I hope he stays in jail.

It's more expensive to execute somebody than to keep them in jail for life.

Which is why they should revert back to using rope or bullets.

Sorry to keep going, but this subject really gets my panty's in a wad.

I really hated this "documentary"

To say most of the blame of his actions was due to the disposable hero part of the skate/rock/fame industries is obscene. The only thing good about this "documentary" is Shepard Fairey's cover and Jason Jesse's interview. Otherwise it's crap.

Okay, it's almost worth renting just for Jason Jesse..

Is eighteen years in jail enough for a rapist murderer?

After one of your family members are raped and then murdered, maybe you'll be able to answer that question. Ive never had anyone raped in my family, but Id imagine its not something you forgive someone for. To me, its not even a question worth asking. Im too young to know who this guy is, or just dont know who he is. But anyone who rapes, even without killing someone, should never be let out of prison. You rape AND kill someone, there shouldnt even be a possibility for parole. Why have those thugs in prison not raped and killed him yet? Id imagine hes not in GP?

[Need4Speed]

IMO, They should have smoked him.

Helpful, thank you.

Interesting perspective.

The extra cost comes from the appeals process, not the form of execution.

Yeah, Jason Jesse is brilliant.

Weird, just watched a TV documentary on Christian Hosoi a few weeks back.

Poor skaters. So much pressure to do evil in that line of work........
