A Nelson County judge has ordered a separate trial for Steven Eugene Lawson in the case of Crystal Rogers, who disappeared in July 2015. His trial is set for February 10, 2025. Brooks Houck, Rogers' former boyfriend, and Joseph Lawson will be tried together on December 5. The judge separated the trials due to concerns over inconsistent testimonies from Steven Lawson, which could unfairly impact the other defendants. Rogers' body has never been found.
