FULTON, Mo. -- A Bible school teacher and convicted pornographer suspected of killing a missing Skidmore man performed "gender nullification" procedures on other men and admitted in an online chat room to killing several men, according to an affidavit.

Authorities said it is unclear whether what was reported by 58-year-old Jack Wayne Rogers in the chat room was accurate.

A warrant was issued to search the yard of Rogers' Fulton home for evidence that may implicate him in the disappearance of Branson Kayne Perry, 20, of Skidmore.

According to the highway patrol, searches turned up evidence of Rogers' involvement in murder as well as other crimes. There also was evidence of cannibalism.

Rogers pleaded guilty last Thursday to an 11-count federal indictment to child pornography and obscenity charges. He was being held Tuesday at the Morgan County Sheriff's Department in Versailles, awaiting his sentencing in the pornography case.

A person who chatted with Rogers on the Internet reported that Rogers said he "had killed a number of individuals."
