YouTube Description
as posted by the channelCrystal Rogers, a 35-year-old mother of five from Bardstown, Kentucky, disappeared on July 3, 2015. Her car was found abandoned on the Bluegrass Parkway two days later, with her keys, phone, and purse inside. Her boyfriend at the time, Brooks Houck, was the last person to see her and was named the prime suspect by the Nelson County Sheriff's Office in October 2015. The FBI took over the investigation in 2020, conducting multiple searches, including at properties linked to Houck. In September 2023, Houck was charged with murder and tampering with evidence, while Joseph Lawson and his father, Steven Lawson, were charged with conspiracy to commit murder and tampering with evidence. Crystal's body has never been found, and the case remains a "no body homicide" with trials ongoing in 2025 in Warren County, Kentucky. Steven Lawson was found guilty of conspiracy to commit murder and tampering with evidence on May 30th, 2025 and will be sentenced in August 2025. Brooks Houck and Joseph Lawson are currently on trial: Houck faces murder charges. Crystal's father, Tommy Ballard, was killed in 2016 while hunting, and his case remains unsolved but is believed to be connected. Let's hear from Lawyer Lee, who is in the courtroom (there are no cameras in the courtroom for this trial): how is the trial going so far?
