Did Police Go Too Far? Crystal Rogers Trial Testimony Raises Serious Questions - Day 4

The Commonwealth delivered major bombshells in the Brooks Houck trial today, for Day 4 — wet clothes, overheard confessions, and even a potential murder weapon. But aggressive interrogation tactics may have tainted key witnesses, raising serious doubts about how the Crystal Rogers case was built. I spent the day in the courtroom and tonight I break down what the jury saw, what went wrong, and what it could mean for the murder trial against Brooks Houck and Joey Lawson.

Crystal Rogers, a mom of 5, disappeared on July 23, 2015. The next day her car was found abandoned beside the Blue Ridge Parkway. Her purse, keys and phone were all inside — but Crystal was nowhere to be found. Authorities have never found her body.

Now authorities have arrested three men, all charged in connection with Crystal Rogers’ murder: Brooks Houck, Crystal’s boyfriend and the father of her youngest child, Stephen Lawson, who worked for Houck, and Joseph Lawson, Stephen’s adult son.
