Judge Orders Charges Dismissed in Bucky Brooks Case

By AP

Shepherdsville, KY – Bullitt County Circuit Judge Thomas Waller has ordered
charges against David "Bucky" Brooks dismissed in the
slaying of 17 year old Jessica Dishon. The Bullitt County
girl disappeared from her home in September of 1999.
Her body was found in a wooded area more than two
weeks later.

A second trial for Brooks had been scheduled for
November fifth. His first trial ended in a mistrial after
a Sheriff's Detective testifed that Brooks had failed
a lie-detector test.
