Don Rogers was a business owner and celebrated member of the Troy, Michigan, community, where he lived most of his life.

Danny Chahine was Vonlee Titlow's boyfriend. After hearing a story that led him to believe that Don Rogers had not died of natural causes—but might have been murdered—Chahine sat down with police and told them what he had learned.
