FBI now leading investigation in disappearance of Crystal Rogers; 9 federal search warrants executed

Definitely think it is Crystal they found was wondering why that wouldn't notify the family if it was her but looking at it from a detective point of view maybe they wanted to element of surprise when they executed the search warrants. Hoping they can find enough to get an arrest in this case we need some good news for her family after all this time.

DEVELOPING: FBI searching multiple properties connected to Crystal Rogers’ ex-boyfriend [Reports]
More than 150 members of state and federal law enforcement are in Bardstown, Kentucky, and are searching three properties related to the unsolved 2015 disappearance of Crystal Rogers.

Earlier, the FBI announced it was leading the investigation into Rogers’ disappearance. The agency also launched a website to keep the public up to date on developments in Rogers’ case.

Interesting that the Texas game warden vehicles are there. Does anyone have insight into why/how they would be allowed to operate in Kentucky? I know they tend to have more leeway and have LE authority, but in another state? Would that mean he is suspected of something in Texas that would involve a game warden or something else?

#CrystalRogers We finally got our drone up. This is what the Houck farm looks like from the air. Those cars are law enforcement. In the back right, there’s a pond with divers in it.
@FBILouisville told me they’ve got 24-hour rotations prepared through the weekend @wave3news

Yeh I have no idea. Especially since we have our own game wardens. I’m not sure why they’d come all the way from Texas.

FBI and IRS agents are serving a federal search warrant at Brooks Houck’s home in connection to Crystal Rogers’ disappearance. Police say he is a suspect but haven’t made any arrests.

Prayers for Sherry Ballard and the rest of Crystals friends and family. I have a feeling that the FBI knows who the remains found are, but they have not released to the public yet.
I hope with all of the search warrants it helps find who the murders of Officer Jason Ellis and the murder of Tommy Ballard.

This community needs to not be in fear for their lives if they say something.
This may be great for Sherry Ballard and her family but I bet this will be real bad for the Houck Brothers.

Hope he is enjoying his time outside because I think he will be spending more time in than out in the future.

thats weird bc it’s in Tommy Ballard’s name. It’s circuit court, which typically handles civil cases > $5k, capital offenses, felonies, land dispute stuff. I don’t even want to attempt to guess what it’s about. It feels invasive...

Is Tommy Ballard (by default, his heirs/estate) named as the complainant?

Tommy Ballard is Crystal Rogers father and he was leading an investigation that rivaled any police investigation and the thought is when he started getting to close to the truth he was taken out. He was shot while going hunting with his grandson on his own property. And it appears the ambush was set up on the highway that ran next to his property.

I find it a bit odd that the IRS has also been brought into this investigation. I wonder what money may have to do with this. Maybe using the farm for more than regular farming, may also give us a clue to Jason Ellis. JMO
