BARDSTOWN, Ky. — New court documents reveal a third hair found in the trunk of a car owned by the Houck family nearly a decade ago was similar to Crystal Rogers' hair. Nelson County Judge Charles Simms has ordered two hairs found in the missing Bardstown mother's abandoned car in 2016 undergo new DNA testing.
