College of Medicine opens at Bowling Green's Med Center By Don Sergent, Bowling Green Daily News It was hard to tell which looked more pristine, the gleaming new University of Kentucky College of Medicine-Bowling Green campus building or the 30 fresh-faced students who make up the medical school's initial class. For the 300 or so people who turned out Thursday for a ribbon-cutting that opened the $28 million medical school building on Bowling Green's Med Center Health campus, it didn't matter. It was, as Commonwealth Health Corp. CEO Connie Smith and others said, simply "a remarkable day" that was the culmination of a partnership involving Med Center Health, the University of Kentucky and Western Kentucky University. Those three came together nearly two years ago to give birth to the idea of a medical college that would serve Bowling Green and southcentral Kentucky and address a growing need for physicians throughout the state.

Nelson Sheriff's Office updates public on Crystal Rogers investigation By Forrest Berkshire, The Kentucky Standard The lead investigator in the disappearance of Crystal Rogers provided a wide-ranging update to the case Thursday afternoon that quantified, for the first time, in numbers, the efforts of detectives. "It is far from a cold case," said Capt. Jon Snow, the deputy sheriff who has worked as the lead detective since Rogers disappeared in July 2015. "We work on it -- if not every week -- then at least several times a month. We conducted an interview regarding it yesterday, so it is definitely not classified as a cold case." Brooks Houck, Rogers' live-in boyfriend at the time and father to her youngest child, was named early in the investigation as the prime suspect in her disappearance, but no charges have been brought against him in connection with the case.
