Today marks one month since a Bardstown mother of five went missing. Thirty-five-year-old Crystal Rogers’ car was found with a flat tire on the Bluegrass Parkway in Nelson County. Her keys, purse, and cell phone were still inside.
Her mother Sherry Ballard says the search is exhausting but she's not giving up hope.
"Getting out there searching every day, it's hot, it's tiring, and you get discouraged because you don't find anything," Ballard told WKU Public Radio. "It gets unbearable sometimes but we have to keep looking."
Rogers was last seen on her boyfriend’s family farm on July 3. The farm has been searched, as well as a nearby lake.
The boyfriend, Brooks Houck with whom she has a child, took a lie detector test but the results were inconclusive. He maintains he had nothing to do with her disappearance.
