Crystal Rogers and Brooks Houck

About this episode

Crystal Rogers, mother to 5 children, disappeared on July 3, 2015, from the home she shared with her boyfriend, Brooks Houck, in Bardstown, Kentucky. When Brooks woke up on the morning of July 4, Crystal was gone and her car was missing. He wasn’t worried, he assumed she spent the night with a friend after they had a disagreement. Her family, however, were very worried and have been searching for her for over 8 years. Bardstown, Kentucky has had a series of baffling, unsolved murders over the past 10 years…could they all be linked?<br /><br />Sources:<br /><ul><li><a
