Brookelyn Farthing was last seen in the early morning hours of June 22nd, 2013 at a home in the 100 block of Dillon Ct in Berea KY, a foreclosed home belonging to an acquaintance, 20 yr old Josh Hensley. The home had no running water and no electricity.
On the evening of June 21st, 18 yr old Brookelyn attended a house party on Red Lick Rd with her sister Paige and a cousin. Around 8:00pm Paige and the cousin left the party. Brookelyn decided to stay with a friend and made plans to stay overnight at that female friend’s home. She had brought an overnight bag in preparation.
Later in the evening Brookelyn and her friend had a falling out when the friend decided to spend the night with a male friend or boyfriend and the friend left the party leaving Brookelyn there. A short time later Brookelyn left that party with Josh Hensley and another male.
Allegedly the three drove out to Floyd Branch Road to see some horses that were connected to Josh. Afterwards the other male was dropped off at his home and Brooklyn and Josh returned to the home on Dillon Ct.
Around 4:00am Brookelyn contacted her sister Paige and asked for a ride. Paige didn’t have a way to pick up Brookelyn as she wasn’t a licensed driver and had no access to a vehicle. At the time Brookelyn didn’t appear to be in distress, according to Paige.
Brookelyn then contacted her ex-boyfriend to ask for a ride. He worked a third shift and said he would pick her up on his way home a little after 7:00am. A short time later, at 4:26am, he received several texts from Brooklyn stating “Please hurry”, “I’m scared” and “Hurry”. The last text, at 5:30am, stated “Nevermind” and then that she was instead going to a party in Rockcastle County. He replied to ask who she was going with but received no reply and he decided she was fine and went home.
Later that afternoon, on June 22nd, family began to worry when Brooklyn missed an important family event. They tracked down her last known whereabouts, Josh’s home, and contacted him. Josh was unknown to the family.
Josh stated that he had returned to his home with Brookelyn, was awkward with her there alone as he was a friend of her ex, so he left to attend to the horses on Floyd Branch Road. He had heard her discussing the party in Rockcastle County. When he left Brooklyn was sitting on his sofa smoking a cigarette.
According to Josh, he returned home around 7:00am to find his home on fire and Brooklyn missing. He then called the fire department. The sofa burned to the frame and was so intense it burned a hole through the floor. Brooklyn’s overnight bag, purse and shoes were left on the porch of the home. Brooklyn and only her cell phone were missing.
Brooklyn was never seen again. Her cell phone went unanswered. The last ping was in the Blue Lick Rd area of Berea which is only minutes from the Dillon Ct home. There was no evidence suggesting that Brookelyn ever spoke with anyone or planned to attend a party in Rockcastle County.
Someone knows where Brookelyn is. Someone knows what happened to her. Calling in a tip is not putting someone away…it’s only pointing investigators in the right direction as they must still have evidence to back up the claim. If you have information, please contact the Kentucky State Police in Richmond at 859-623-2404 or 1-800-222-5555.

That’s right. Did you watch the ID channel show today? I think we all know what happened to Brookelyn. We need to find her body. Sooner or later he will slip up.

I’m confused why this last guy to see her alive didn’t take a polygraph, or why not scrape under his fingernails for possible dna , check his body for scratches, try to do an undercover sting using her Ex Jared and his so called friend who was there with Brooke that night. They have a person of interest! Her stuff was there! Put a tail on him ….SOMETHING!!

He likely refused to take a polygraph. They would need a warrant for anything else.
A woman came forward on social media with a story about a woman who was in a car with Hensley when he ran out of gas. A man stopped to help and the woman told the guy she was fearful of Hensley because he told her that he had killed Brookelyn, dismembered her and spread her body out in different areas. No way to know if this is true.
If Hensley did kill Brookelyn then he had plenty of time to rid of her. It’s probably unlikely he would return to her remains. The burning of the sofa was effective and it left reasonable doubt. The only way he will be charged is if she’s found or he confesses. I think we all know the answer.

I do believe that someone else knows something about where she is located. People need to talk! She is somewhere.
He said that he left the house to let out some horses. I think she’s likely in that area or somewhere along the way.
This case sure needs the attention.

I sure hope there is some justice in Brooklyn’s case. It’s one I think about often.
