A Bardstown lawmaker introduced House Bill 305, that would crack down on recording grand jury proceedings.
Ballard was about to go hunting on the family's property along Ed Brent Lane near the Blue Grass Parkway when he was shot in the chest.
Houck agreed to let his sister, Rhonda McIlvoy, have full custody of Eli, who is now 12, according to court documents filed on Monday.
Rhonda McIlvoy filed a motion in Nelson Circuit Court on July 18, ten days after Brooks Houck was found guilty in the 2015 murder of Rogers, asking to maintain custody of Eli, who is now 12.
On Friday, Judge Charles Simms III, who presided over the 10-day trial in which Houck was convicted in the 2015 murder or Rogers, ordered Houck not to transfer any property until at least after an evidentiary hearing scheduled for Oct. 8.
For a third straight day, dozens of federal agents searched two rural Nelson County properties that were once owned by members of Brooks Houck's family in the latest investigation into Crystal Rogers' death.
From the very beginning and over the course of time, the past nine years have been filled with heartache and suffering.
The lawsuit seeks unspecified monetary damages for wrongful death and asks for a jury trial.
Houck had been in the Hardin County Detention Center on a $10 million cash bond since his September arrest.
According to court records unsealed Friday, Steve Lawson was indicted by a Nelson County grand jury in May for tampering with evidence. On Dec. 6, he was indicted on a charge for conspiracy to commit murder in connection with the Rogers case.
