It's been years since Crystal Roger went missing. Her then-boyfriend, Brooks Houck, immediately became the main suspect. 

The mom of five was last seen at Houck's home. Rogers' car was found abandoned with a flat tire on the Bluegrass Parkway two days later. Her keys, phone, and purse were inside the vehicle. Houck was interviewed, but not arrested.

Houck has been charged with murder and tampering with evidence. Now we learn that an Nancy Grace episode in which Houck spoke with Nancy on HLN has been entered into evidence. 

Rogers’ body has not been found.

Nancy Grace examines the tragic murder and dismemberment of 19-year-old criminal justice student Sade Robinson. Nancy and her expert panel piece together a chilling timeline that began with Robinson's first date with 33-year-old Maxwell Anderson, the son of a Milwaukee millionaire. Listeners are guided through a gruesome investigation involving severed human remains discovered across Milwaukee and along Lake Michigan, a torched vehicle, and a disturbing search of Anderson's home that uncovered blood stains and an underground basement functioning as a sex dungeon. Through deeply emotional conversations with Robinson's grieving parents and insights from a panel of forensic, legal, and investigative experts, the episode delves into newly unsealed warrants, the ongoing search for Robinson's remaining body parts, and a family's urgent demand for justice.
