Rose Albano was a 33-year-old Filipino American woman who was murdered in San Diego on December 18, 1993. She was living with her boyfriend, Ramon Jay Rogers, and was pregnant with his child when she disappeared. Parts of her remains—her left arm, left leg, and jawbone—were found on December 29, 1993, inside a trash bag about a mile and a half from the home of Rogers’ sister; the dismemberment and disposal pointed to a deliberate effort to conceal the crime.

Ramon Jay Rogers worked as the resident manager of an apartment complex on Saranac Street. He was not arrested immediately; the case was reopened in 1996 after the disappearance of another woman linked to Rogers. Prosecutors charged Rogers with the murders of Albano and two other people, and a jury later convicted him of first-degree murder in Albano’s death. The case exposed a pattern of violence against people close to Rogers and led to his conviction and a death sentence.

Anyone with memories of Rose, where she lived in San Diego, or information about her last days is asked to come forward.
