Transgender killer Robert Dorgan murdered his son and ex-wife and critically wounded her parents at Sunday’s horrifying massacre at a Rhode Island high-school hockey game, according to a family GoFundMe.

“Our family has been forever changed by the tragic events at Lynch Arena, where we lost our beloved brother Aidan and their mother Rhonda, who was also my stepmother,” wrote fundraiser organizer Amanda Wallace-Hubbard on the page.

“In addition to this unimaginable loss, their grandparents are currently in critical condition, fighting for their lives,” she wrote of Rhonda’s parents, who were gravely wounded in the shooting.

Dorgan’s teenage son Colin –- a star multi-sport athlete –- was competing on the ice just feet away when his dad launched his heinous rampage, killing the boy’s mom and older brother.

Colin and his sister Ava are now parentless, Wallace-Hubbard noted.

A relative has said Drogan had a total of six children.

“Ava, who is working hard as a nursing student, and Colin, a 17-year-old senior in high school, are now facing the future without their parents and older brother,” Wallace-Hubbard wrote.

“The weight of this loss is something no one should ever have to bear, especially at such young ages.”
Wallace-Hubbard said Ava and Colin are determined to continue their education and “build a life that honors the memory of our loved ones” despite a tough road ahead “filled with uncertainty and financial challenges.”

So far the fundraiser has collected $57,000 of its $65,000 goal.

After his sadistic rampage at the Pawtucket ice rink, Dorgan, who went by Roberta Esposito and underwent gender reassignment surgery in 2020, took his own life
