Josiah Rogers said his role in the scheme was the getaway driver.
He was employed as an active-duty patrol officer at the time of the heists. The jury began deliberating Thursday afternoon and will resume Friday morning.Ĭaleb Rogers, 35, could be sentenced to life in prison if convicted of brandishing a department-issued weapon in one of the robberies. Rogers revealed details of the extensive planning that went into the robbery when he took the stand Thursday and testified for several hours against his brother, Caleb Rogers, who was on trial this week over a trio of casino heists in late 2021 and early 2022.
But then the conversation took a turn, and soon they were putting a plan together for a heist in November 2021, he said.
