Missing Person Search Continues For Missing Nelson Co. Mother

Family and friends continue to search for one missing Nelson County mom.

Crystal Rogers went missing last summer; her longtime boyfriend is considered a suspect in her disappearance.

Although there is no concrete evidence that Crystal’s boyfriend, Brooks Houck, played a role in her disappearance, her parents say they won’t let him slip through the cracks. Wednesday morning Crystal’s parents went to the Nelson County courthouse and asked the state to make sure that Houck not be allowed to leave Kentucky.

http://liarcatchers.com/missing_persons_investigations.html

The decision has been delayed until later this month.

While the court searches for a solution, Crystal’s family continues to search for her. They say they’ve already covered close to 20 thousand acres.

The family urges anyone with a tip about what happened to Crystal to call (502) 827- 2003. They say anonymous tips are welcome.

Wrongful Death Man Sentenced for Killing His Wife

A Powell County man has been sentenced for killing his wife last April in their home.

A judge sentenced James Hood to eight year in prison and five years probation after shooting his wife in the stomach. The five years of probation is included with the eight year sentence. The year he has already spent in prison will go toward the eight year sentence, meaning he will get out of prison next year.

http://liarcatchers.com/wrongful_death.html

During the sentencing on Wednesday, the judge went through notes on the case that stated witnesses at the scene of the shooting saw Hood’s wife, Rosena, shoot a dog and throw it into a fire at a party. After that, they say that Hood and his wife went for the gun and Rosena ended up being shot in the stomach.

She was rushed to the hospital and later died.

The judge also briefly mentioned a case in which Hood faced charges involving controlled substances. His wife was involved with that case too. The sentencing for that case was included in the second degree manslaughter charges.

On November 10, 1985, the unidentified remains of an adult female (victim 1) and a juvenile female (victim 2) were discovered in a 55-gallon metal barrel covered with a tarp. They were located in a wooded area behind a trailer park adjacent to Bear Brook State Park near Allenstown, New Hampshire. Victim 1 is a white female aged 22 to 33, and victim 2 is a white female aged 5 to 11. On May 9, 2000, a second barrel was discovered approximately 100 yards from the first with the skeletal remains of victims 3 and 4. Victim 3 is a white female aged 2 to 4, and victim 4 is a white female aged 1 to 3. All four victims were killed between 1980 and 1985 and possibly as early as 1977. DNA analysis revealed that victim 1 is the mother of 2 and 4. Victim 3 is not maternally related to victim 1, yet, there is a possibility of paternal relationship to the other juveniles. All four victims likely were living in the same area for the last 2 to 3 months of their lives.

Pedophile Tracking Olathe, KS Man Sentenced to Life

A 31-year-old Johnson County man will serve at least 40 years in prison for sexually molesting an 8-year-old girl.

Robert Donovan Burton was sentenced Tuesday to life in prison with no chance of parole for 40 years for abusing the girl at an Olathe home in late 2012 and early 2013.

http://liarcatchers.com/pedophile_tracking.html

The Kansas City Star reports it was Burton’s second conviction for a sex crime involving a child. In 2005, he pleaded guilty in Johnson County District Court to attempted rape of a child younger than 14. In that case, his 12-year-old victim later gave birth to a child fathered by Burton.

The girl in the latest case reported to authorities that Burton molested her after showing her pornographic videos on his cellphone.

Wrongful Death Man Accused in Stabbing Death of 6 Year Old Pleads Not Guilty

The Indiana man accused of stabbing and killing a 6-year-old Versailles boy during a home invasion pleaded not guilty.

Police say Ronald Exantus stabbed Logan Tipton to death during a home invasion last year.

Officers said Logan was in his room asleep when Exantus allegedly entered the home and stabbed him. Police said after the stabbing, Logan’s father got into a fight with Exantus in the home’s hallway. Logan’s sisters were also assaulted. Officers arrested Exantus at the scene.

http://liarcatchers.com/wrongful_death.html

It was the first time that Logan Tipton’s family had seen Exantus since that tragic night in December. Family members filled the first two rows of the courtroom.

Afterwards, Logan Tipton’s mother issued a statement to the media.

“I just wanted to say thank you to the whole community and everyone for their thoughts and prayers and support and just continue to keep my family especially my children in your prayers,” Heather Pujol-Tipton told reporters.

Exantus’ attorney, Bridget Hofler told LEX 18 that her client is mentally unstable.

“His mental state is in and out. Some days are better than others. He is obviously not himself, nor has he been since I’ve come to know him.” Hofler told LEX 18.

The hearing was held in Woodford County’s District Court building. Exantus waived formal arraignment.

A Woodford County grand jury indicted Exantus for murder, burglary and assault. He could face the death penalty.

Identity Theft Bedford, OH Woman Sentenced to More Than 2 Years in Prison

A Bedford woman was sentenced to more than two years in prison and ordered to pay nearly $150,000 in restitution for an identity theft and tax fraud scheme, law enforcement officials announced Monday.

Michelle Devine was sentenced to 28 months in prison by U.S. District Judge Dan Polster, and ordered to pay $149,616 in restitution.

Devin, 44, pleaded guilty last year to one count of aggravated identity theft, four counts of theft of government property and one count of filing false claims for income tax refunds.

http://liarcatchers.com/identity_theft_investigation.html

“This woman preyed on people’s trust by posing as a legitimate tax preparer,” said U.S Attorney Steven M. Dettelbach. “Instead, she abused that trust and stole money.”

“Identity theft is a contemptible modern-day scourge,” said Guy A. Ficco, Acting Special Agent in Charge, IRS Criminal Investigation, Cincinnati Field Office. “Individuals who commit refund fraud and identity theft of this magnitude and with this degree of trickery, dishonesty and deceit deserve to be punished to the fullest extent of the law.”

This case was prosecuted by Assistant U.S. Attorney M. Kendra Klump following at investigation by the Internal Revenue Service — Criminal Investigations

Drug Dog Sweep New Jersey Man Arrested After Cocaine and Heroin Found

A 33-year-old New Jersey man was arrested on drug charges Monday following an Interstate 91 traffic stop when a police dog led state police to some heroin and cocaine hidden in the vehicle, state police said.

Dion Johnson of Linden, New Jersey, was stopped on I-91 North near exit 22 by Trooper Robert Wyckoff for a motor vehicle violation just before 9 a.m., said Trooper Dustin Fitch of the State Police media relations bureau.

Johnson was placed in custody when a records check showed his New Jersey drivers license had been suspended, Finch said.

Trooper K-9 Matthew Donah, who responded to the scene to assist Wyckoff, had his dog, Brutus, search the vehicle. The dog alerted troopers to several locations inside the car to where drugs were found.

Troopers found 250 packets of heroin and a bag of cocaine.

He was charged with possession of a class B substance, cocaine, possession of a class A substance, heroin, unlicensed operation of a motor vehicle and a motor vehicle equipment violation, Fitch said.

Johnson was booked at the state police barracks in Northampton and arraigned at Hampshire District Court.

Private Detective: Man Stealing From Cars in South Lexington

Police are looking for a man who has been breaking into cars in a South Lexington neighborhood.

“One of the unique things you’ll notice about him in the video is he’s got on almost like a reflective jacket.  A lot of time we’ll see city workers or road workers that wear that kind of jacket,” Detective Mark Thomas with the Lexington Police Department told LEX 18’s Kristen’s Pflum.

Police say that the burglar is targeting cars on Haverwood Drive. One of the iPads stolen had the GPS tracking device turned on so they were able to find out that it was in Geogetown. Lexington Police are currently working with Gerogetown Police to identify the suspect.

Lexington Police say he hit at least two cars on December 5, stealing an iPad and other small electronics.

“This guy particularly goes up to car doors and he’s trying the door handles to get them open and when he finds one open, in this case he went straight in and took some belongings,” said Thomas.

He was caught on someone’s surveillance camera.

If you can identify him, call the Crime Stoppers number at (859) 253-2020, you may earn a cash reward.
