Trans dad’s second victim named as his engineer son, 23, who died beside mom during Rhode Island hockey game as younger son watched from the ice
A 23-year-old man was shot dead by his transgender father at his younger brother’s high school hockey game in Rhode Island.
Aidan Dorgan, 23, was killed alongside his mother Rhonda, 52, at the Lynch Arena in Pawtucket, a few miles outside Providence, on Monday afternoon.
They were killed by Robert Dorgan, who also went by the name Roberta Esposito.
Aidan’s grandparents were among those injured in the attack. They are currently in critical condition, fighting for their lives, a GoFundMe page established by Rhonda’s stepdaughter Amanda Wallace-Hubbard revealed.
Rhonda’s youngest son Colin Dorgan, 17, watched the tragedy unfold from the ice, video of the shooting showed.
Colin, captain of the Blackstone Valley Schools’ hockey team, can be seen skating backwards as shots rang out in the rink.
Colin and his sister Ava, a 20-year-old nursing student, are heartbroken by the loss of their mother and older brother.
‘The weight of this loss is something no one should ever have to bear, especially at such young ages,’ Wallace-Hubbard wrote.
‘Despite the pain, Ava and Colin are determined to continue their education and build a life that honors the memory of our loved ones.’
