Robert Rozier
Robert Earnest Rozier Jr. (born July 28, 1955) is an American murderer and former professional defensive end in gridiron football.
Born in Alaska and raised in California, Rozier was a high-school and collegiate athlete before briefly playing professional gridiron football. In the 1980s, he joined the Nation of Yahweh, and by Halloween 1986 had killed at least four people on behalf of the religious group. Charged therefor, Rozier turned state's evidence against the group and its leader, and was sentenced to 22 years in prison; he was paroled after ten and put into witness protection. After Rozier was caught bouncing checks in 1999, he was sentenced to 25 years-to-life under California's three-strikes law in 2001.
Born on July 28, 1955, in Anchorage, Alaska Territory, Robert Earnest Rozier Jr. was a United States Air Force brat who grew up in California.
At Cordova High School in Rancho Cordova, California, he scored a 1.32 grade point average and did not receive his high school diploma. Rozier was later a student at both Grays Harbor College in Aberdeen, Washington, and the University of California, Berkeley (majoring in African-American studies), but graduated from neither school.
By 1999, Rozier was living in Cameron Park, California, owned an auto detailing business in Sacramento, worked in web design, and had raised two children.
At Cordova High, Rozier was an athletic wunderkind: the teen played American football as a defensive end and was "all-league, all-conference, all-Northern California." The high-schooler could also high jump six feet seven inches (2.01 m), vertical jump ten feet (3.0 m), sprint the 40-yard dash in 4.7 seconds, and bench press 375 pounds (170 kg). When he was passed over to play college football for lacking his Cordova High diploma, he enrolled at Grays Harbor College, where he played from 1975–1976. From there, he was recruited by University of California, Berkeley's football coach, Mike White. At California, team captain Ralph DeLoach described Rozier as "the best athlete on the team", playing 1977–1978.
The 6-foot-3-inch (1.91 m) and 240-pound (110 kg) Bob Rozier was drafted by the St. Louis Cardinals in the ninth round of the 1979 NFL draft (228th overall). A defensive end, Rozier played as number 75 for six games in 1979, starting for none of them. Rozier's professional sports career in the U.S. was derailed by "allegations of drug use and petty crime."
Rozier briefly moved on to the Canadian Football League (CFL); in the 1979 CFL season, he played defensive end for the Hamilton Tiger-Cats as number 53, and in the 1980 season, he played for the Saskatchewan Roughriders. In 1981, he returned to the U.S. and signed with the Oakland Raiders ("a team with a reputation for collecting misfits") for only two weeks.
