Pinwheels for Prevention on display at Zahra Baker Playground

"More than a 1,000 blue pinwheels spun in the breeze at the Zahra Baker Memorial Playground in Hickory on Monday.

Pinwheels for Prevention is a project to remind people to call 911 whenever they suspect child abuse and to urge people involved to get help.

The 1,500 pinwheels placed at the playground represent only part of the number of calls that come in to the Department of Social Services every year in Catawba County."

New sculpture to commemorate Zahra Baker

"Thanks to the City of Hickory, an artist’s vision and a little serendipity, a new sculpture will pay tribute to Zahra Baker at Kiwanis Park. Zahra’s Whirled is an 8-foot-tall kinetic sculpture, reminiscent of a pinwheel, that will serve as the focal point of a concrete plaza near the Zahra Baker All Children’s Playground. The piece, composed of recycled and stainless steel, is expected to be unveiled by the end of April, which is National Child Abuse Prevention Month."

Family of missing girl speaks out on CBS Early Show
The family of a Hickory girl who has been missing for three days spoke out on the CBS Early Show Tuesday morning just hours before police officially said the AMBER alert for the girl had been canceled, and that the case is now a homicide investigation.
The Hickory Police Department isn't sure how long 10-year-old Zahra Claire Baker has been missing.

Nine years wow, can't believe it has been that long ..... Killer's sentence disgraceful, I feel like they have no heart, sense or reason to give out such ridiculous sentences.

This case has always and still rests heavily on my mind. RIP Zahra

I've gone back to review this case, and the problem I've run in to is that almost all the links are either 404'd or "Not Available". Any suggestions or help?

TYVM! I just posted on the "Why Dismember" page- Why dismember? , but this case has been on my mind recently and so I've been reviewing it. I recently joined this site, but have been a fan for years. Still learning how to navigate here at WS, but sincerly appreciate the help. Thanks again!
