The investigation began Sunday evening when Strickland was reported missing. She was initially believed to have been last seen leaving the Stricklin Hotel on Court Street in Florence shortly before 2 a.m. on Sunday. At the time, police believed she was “endangered” and “may be living with a condition that may impair her judgment.”

Detectives received multiple tips from the community. Further investigation, including obtaining video evidence, led them to Rogers.

Cops arrested Rogers early Tuesday and later allegedly found Strickland’s body inside his home. Investigators have not yet said how Rogers and Strickland knew each other.
