to cover operations.
The company normally
employs 45 to 50 people
during the summer and 35 to
40 in the winter. “There will
be some reduction in staff
but, in theory, it should be no
less than the normal attrition
at this point in the year,” Cole
said.
The sale was initiated
before a Wings of Alaska
crash in July near Juneau that
killed a pilot and injured four
passengers.

Serial killer sent to death row

In 2000, the Oregon high
court ruled that the jury
incorrectly considered only
the options of death and life
in prison with the possibility
of parole. There should have
been a third choice: life
without the chance of parole.
In 2012, the justices said
jury selection was done
improperly and the judge
incorrectly allowed evidence
of Rogers’ gay experiences as
a teenager.
His new sentencing trial is
expected to last three weeks.
Under Oregon law, a convic-
tion for aggravated murder
requires a separate sentencing
trial with jurors deciding
whether or not to impose a
death sentence.
Though it is rare to have
four separate sentencing
trials, it’s not unprecedented.

Rogers has been sentenced
to death, and three times his
sentence has been overturned.
Rogers, one of Oregon’s
PRVW SUROL¿F VHULDO NLOOHUV
returned to an Oregon City
courtroom Tuesday to yet
again face jurors who could
send him to death row.
Though that is an option,
the past two governors have
placed a moratorium on
executions, and the state has
not executed anyone since
1997.
Rogers, 62, tortured and
killed several women in the
1980s, binding some of them
and stabbing them repeatedly.
The former lawn-mower
repairman,
dubbed
the
Molalla Forest Killer because
the bodies were discovered in
a forest in the small town of
Molalla, was known for his
brutality.
Rogers was convicted of
six killings in 1989, and each
of three juries has sentenced
him to death. Rogers also
was tied to the slaying of a
ZRPDQ LGHQWL¿HG LQ
and sentenced to life in prison
for the stabbing death of a
woman outside a Portland
restaurant in 1987.
The state Supreme Court
struck down Rogers’ death
sentences in 1992, 2000 and
7KH ¿UVW WLPH ZDV WR
comply with a U.S. Supreme
Court ruling that invalidated
Oregon’s death penalty law.
