The Case of Bardstown
Added 2021-03-06 11:36:40 +0000 UTCHey everyone! Posting this one a little earlier than usual as its the longest video yet! This is a story I told very early on in the channel, and looking back I don't think I did it justice at all, so I wanted to revisit it, especially as more came out. So now this video is over 4 times longer than the original haha. Hope you enjoy, and have a great weekend!

I also live in Etown and you’re right, it’s been quite awhile since I’ve seen a “Find Crystal” sign.

2021-05-22 20:08:30 +0000 UTCThis is down the road from where I live in Elizabethtown, Kentucky (okay 30-40 minute drive). I really remember when Chrystal went missing because one of the guys in the volunteer ground and aerial search and rescue organization I am in was a friend of the family, really rattled and wanted to find her. The sheriff didn’t want to make a formal request for our services so we had a training event with coordinated air and ground search (I was in the aircraft) that if we happened to see anything we would naturally report it. We didn’t see anything. The lakes and ponds in the area were so swollen from the rain earlier that week that it was impossible. That and forest is so dense and leafed out at that time of year that it was trying to spot a needle in a haystack. You’d see “Find Chrystal” signs on the parkway for over a year from when she went missing. Now you don’t see much. Friends I have in Bardstown don’t have a whole lot of faith in the integrity of local law enforcement.

2021-05-22 02:19:15 +0000 UTCIt’s so surreal hearing Mike mention my hometown, Elizabethtown. Bardstown is only 20 minutes away and my dad works there. On a side note, my great aunt (by marriage) is Brooks Houck’s aunt. My dad asked her once if she thinks he’s guilty, and she said “hell yeah he’s guilty!”

2021-03-22 04:50:32 +0000 UTCLast night I spoke to a woman at a kentucky truck stop about this. She lives in Bardstown. She said people never talk about it. They all mind their own business and keep a few close friends. 😳

2021-03-20 10:22:15 +0000 UTCYes it was E.W.! 'Go raibh míle maith agat' means a thousand thank you's or thank you very much in Irish (Gaeilge), 'agus' means and. Glad to see Mike using a bit more Gaeilge in his sign offs!! :)
Lynsey Hanratty
2021-03-14 21:45:06 +0000 UTCI think roughly it means "a thousand good wishes to you"

2021-03-12 05:12:27 +0000 UTCGreat coverage of this unsettling case. I hope they find who was behind the murders. Answered prayers for the mom/wife.

2021-03-11 19:57:50 +0000 UTCWas that sign off in Gaelic? If so could someone tell me what it means? Thanks!

2021-03-11 10:24:45 +0000 UTCI heard him say or the sight of a weapon right after saying that. It’s fast so you’ll have to listen close.

2021-03-09 18:23:00 +0000 UTCFantastic job, my friend. This story always stuck with me since you first reported it. So glad to see you revisit it. You did a wonderful job, as always. Thank you.
AMBER NALL
2021-03-09 15:19:23 +0000 UTCMan I want those two brothers locked up!! Grrr as much as I love this content, this case really frustrates me. His brother looks more guilty then him.. but then again I could be wrong...Thanks again Mike. Your amazeballs!!!
jennifer h
2021-03-09 06:13:06 +0000 UTCYesssss new content! And it's long!! Great discovery on a Monday evening.
Helena
2021-03-08 18:26:46 +0000 UTCThank you for all the videos Mike, I've been slowly working my way through them, and now I'm onto your early stuff which is also great. ❤️
Mimi
2021-03-08 15:59:42 +0000 UTCI'm not even done watching, but as soon as the boyfriend starts the "I'm a victim" routine and long, drawn out explanation, I feel he's guilty. The phone call was the cherry on top.
Lisa B
2021-03-08 13:11:59 +0000 UTCWe also have 2 dozen arm chair detectives that work the case with PIs that volunteer their time, but as you know it turns up nothing..
Halie Gail
2021-03-08 12:30:26 +0000 UTCJason’s K9 passed away about 2 years after his murder. They spread his ashes over Jason’s grave.. Her mother is a hero in these parts. She is treated with the most respect, and all of our hearts are broken for her..
Halie Gail
2021-03-08 12:28:44 +0000 UTCThank you so much mike for doing this with more details..
Halie Gail
2021-03-08 11:35:29 +0000 UTCThanks Mike. I may be remembering incorrectly but thought there was suspected to be some kind of drugs link between the cases, one that all the victims may have stumbled across or were about to expose? Sorry if I'm getting it confused but definitely rings a bell.

Paula Bernardes-Silva
2021-03-07 22:38:59 +0000 UTCExcellent work, Mike! I live very close to Bardstown and the rumor mill is still running on all of these cases. It's so incredibly sad and I agree, I feel so badly for her mother. Thanks for all of your work on these cases...it's a tremendous tragedy for all involved.

2021-03-07 18:11:16 +0000 UTCTa failte romhat, Mike you put so much effort and research into your videos. Excuse my shit English to Irish translation I’m using google translate, I wish my parents had taught me more then cead mile failte and feach 🤣🤣🤣 Although my children love saying feach because it’s not swearing technically, try explaining that to the Aussies 😉

2021-03-07 03:57:58 +0000 UTCI remember when you first covered this story. Its amazing to see how far your channel has grown. Great work.
Shaun Hedeen
2021-03-07 03:37:58 +0000 UTCHe meant what he said, he just didn’t want to say it to the Media that way.

2021-03-07 02:20:11 +0000 UTCI feel as if the first three murders were vendettas of some kind....as were the rest.

2021-03-07 01:54:51 +0000 UTCAwesome storytelling. Thank you!
Miranda Doyle
2021-03-07 01:32:46 +0000 UTCScreeeeeeew that Brookes guy and his brother. Ugh! Both just make my skin crawl. And, thank you, Mike! Excellent coverage, as always!!
Leyna Bansbach
2021-03-06 23:40:19 +0000 UTC...the brothers did away with Crystal and carefully planned it. The teacher's broken windows was an early warning possibly?
Si Greg
2021-03-06 23:31:02 +0000 UTCHere's my theory. Jason the cop had something on the brother cop, was going to get him kicked off the force. The school teacher knew something about it (small town). They didn't realise the daughter was home and were taken by surprise by her presence there...
Si Greg
2021-03-06 23:27:44 +0000 UTCThank you Mike, what a watch that was!!
SarahK
2021-03-06 23:25:47 +0000 UTCHaving spent most of today watching football, this was the best forty five minutes of the day. Keep up the great work, Mike, and I will see in the next one.
Eddie Glass
2021-03-06 22:56:57 +0000 UTCGreat deep dive Mike. I cant help but think there was some animosity between the the 2 cops. That is the Link there and who knows... maybe the mother and daughter saw something.
brenda redmond
2021-03-06 22:31:47 +0000 UTCJason was a great guy. Thanks Mike.

David A. Chauvette
2021-03-06 22:18:11 +0000 UTCThe one cop doesn't make any sense. An eye for an eye he says. You kill one of my officers, I won't stop until you're in cuffs. An eye for an eye means equal punishment. Hammurabi's code of law. A murder isn't equal to being in jail...
JR Butchko
2021-03-06 20:14:55 +0000 UTCMike, this was an amazing deep dive. I've seen a few different accounts, a couple of them in-depth, of the Bardstown murders, and yours is amazing - in my opinion, the best yet! I know you worked hard to put all of this together, and I appreciate that; the outcome deserves a chef's kiss💋 I am excitedly looking forward to you deep diving into more cases. To make a long story short: Superb job, Mike. Love ya! ❤💙
Deanna D
2021-03-06 19:15:26 +0000 UTCMike, I have done nothing but watch your videos for the last two weeks. Seriously. You're amazing - keep up the great work.

Marcie Lee
2021-03-06 17:45:50 +0000 UTCI cant see how the 2&3 murders were connected. The cops murder could be but the mom & daughter, I don't know.
Linderman Edgewater
2021-03-06 17:39:33 +0000 UTCLove the longer video! Sad story though. Very sad.

KneeDeep In Bluegrass
2021-03-06 17:04:10 +0000 UTCHey, Mike, Well done. Thank you for all you do. What a horrendous history that town has. As always, you balanced out the crime details, realities for those left behind and the full story in a considerate way.

2021-03-06 15:26:35 +0000 UTCAwesome video. I feel spoiled with it being so extensive. As always, a real whodunnit (it was those guys).
