Nancy Grace warns suspected Maryland mom killer could ‘strike again’
Fox Nation’s ‘Crime Stories’ host Nancy Grace unpacks details in the ongoing search for a Maryland mom's suspected killer.
U.S. Navy Chief Kyle Rogemoser was celebrating his promotion before he landed behind bars for allegedly pummeling his girlfriend in their Florida hotel room as she begged for help, authorities said.
A good Samaritan heard her cries, stormed into the DoubleTree hotel room in Jacksonville and rescued the woman before calling 911, according to an arrest report obtained by Fox News Digital.
As the witness spoke to responding officers Oct. 7, he spotted Rogemoser, 36, strolling through the hotel lobby and pointed him out to deputies, the report says.
Rogemoser, who had a large, red abrasion on his neck, was arrested on one count of misdemeanor domestic battery shortly after midnight.

He appeared to be "extremely intoxicated" and repeatedly told a deputy he could not understand his Miranda rights, police said.
On Oct. 6, the couple arrived at the hotel about 5 p.m. and shared an "alcoholic beverage," according to the police report.
The drink was followed by a "celebratory dinner at the hotel for the suspect's promotion to chief in the Navy and [they were] staying the evening," the victim allegedly told an officer. After the festivities, the couple went up to their hotel room and got into an argument.

"The victim stated the suspect punched her in the mouth three times," the affidavit alleges. "She started to call for help, and she heard a knock on the hotel door and she opened [it]. The witness came in, picked her up and took her downstairs to management until police were called."
The woman's injuries were photographed and included red marks on her chin and her neck as well as fresh blood on her bottom lip.
Rogemoser was booked into the Duval County Jail on Oct. 7 and released three days later after a family member posted his $5,003 bail, court records show.
