Boston’s Finest Cast Member Patrick Rogers Pat Rogers has sadly passed away. Despite the tragedy, the second season of the show, which Donnie Wahlberg produced, is scheduled to premiere tonight. Last week, a Boston Police Officer who frequently appeared on the show passed himself, allegedly by taking his own life.
The tragic death of Officer Pat Rogers was grieved by members of the Boston Police Department around one week prior to the show’s scheduled return. Rogers, a resident of Dorchester who worked for the police for more than eight years, is regarded as “tough as any cop on the street,” but he also has a terrific sense of humour and is laid back when not on duty.
On the TNT series, Rogers was paired with Jenn Penton, one of the primary topics of the show, and the two of them cruised the city. Patrick Rogers is an eight-year department veteran. Donnie Wahlberg, a Dorchester native, produces the docudrama, and Rogers appeared in multiple episodes of the first season.
Beloved son of Kathleen (Connolly) and Francis M. Cosgrove of Dorchester and William F. Rogers of Weymouth. Beloved brother of Kelly A. Alves of Dedham. Devoted uncle of Devon Rogers and Caitlin Alves of Dedham. Beloved nephew of James M. Connolly of Dorchester.
