Description

Eighteen-year-old Brookelyn “Brooke” Farthing had just graduated high school in Berea, Kentucky, and was looking forward to a summer of celebrations and freedom. But in the early hours of June 22, 2013, Brooke found herself in a situation that quickly turned dangerous. After attending a party with friends, Brooke ended up stranded at a house in rural Madison County. Disturbing text messages sent to her ex-boyfriend indicated that she was scared and desperately seeking help. Shortly after, her phone went silent.

Later that morning, the house where she was last seen caught fire under suspicious circumstances. Brooke’s personal belongings were found at the scene—but Brooke herself had vanished without a trace. Over a decade later, her family still searches tirelessly for answers.

If you have information about Brookelyn Farthing’s disappearance, please contact the Kentucky State Police at (859) 623-2404.

this case sounds similar to Arkansas's Rebecca Gould case, and in a way the Holly Bobo case. a lack of imagination in the true crime community is so annoying. like, there were neighbors; were any of them bad people? how secure was that abandoned house, with no utilities, kept? could anyone have been inside the house that did not belong there? why not burn her belongings while "destroying" evidence"?
