Sherry Ballard has lived a life of heartbreak the past 10 years. Her world flipped upside down when she lost a daughter and husband to murder and a grandson to the legal system.

The notice, filed in Nelson Circuit Court and dated Monday, Oct. 6, stated Houck's intention to take his appeal of the entire case to the Kentucky Supreme Court.

The hearing was originally scheduled for Thursday, Aug. 21 in Nelson County.

With every car and truck that passed by the crowd and honked, the crowd erupted in cheers.

Friday, after a little over two hours of deliberation, a Warren County jury found Steve Lawson, 54.
