Flanked by two attorneys, Elisa Baker, Zahra's stepmother, wore a bright pink jumpsuit and was handcuffed and chained at her wrist and ankles at her court appearance Wednesday. She was informed of the felony charge against her, which carries a penalty of more than two years in prison upon conviction. Asked if she understood, she replied she did in a low voice.
The bond on this charge is $40,000, in addition to the bond of more than $30,000 she faces on charges unrelated to Zahra's disappearance. Her attorney, Scott Reilly, said he would be filing a motion to get the obstruction of justice charge reduced, calling it "excessive." She is next scheduled to have a probable cause hearing on November 3.
Yes, I'm trying to avoid being graphic but I hope they have a good comparison (which they should have.) Hair brush or some personal item.
Also from the above link^^^^^
"North Carolina social services officials declined to comment on the case. "

Good morning everyone!
I've had a couple of our members contact me about the blanket comments regarding child welfare services. They are very dedicated to their cases and it pains them to see our negative comments about all of their peers. Also, I have a friend in my county who works for child welfare services and happen to know she is also very dedicated and that in our county, the response to calls is taken very seriously. They will contact the child alone and make a surprise visit to the home.
So please bear in mind that the system isn't messed up everywhere. Years and years ago it definitely was an issue, but I really do think many of the cracks have been filled. We need to support those people trying to help the thousands of kids who are still being abused out there, not tear them down.
Thank you guys for looking at it both ways. But in this case, I do agree that I'd like to know more about what happened with the social services that were called??? Yet, I don't blame all social services as a whole in the LEAST!
If bio mom cooperates they can also collect DNA from family if necessary. I don't see needing to do that happening, but it is an option if they can't get a good sample off a hair brush etc.
We have talked about prayers for the LE in this case.
I'm also praying for SM's attorney. I can't imagine being in his position.

Meeting with attorney Scott Riley now...
Soft spoken to the judge and asked no questions..( whatever)
DA says any case involving a child is a priority.
Attorney says she is upset and misses being with her family... ( ok yeah whatever again)
Wow was that 45 secs or whole minute...
Sorry
that's all we got here on WBTV.
Nothing new on the search or findings
Bringing post over from closed thread:
with the extensive medical history she has there maybe a lab sample somewhere in her homeland (to compare cell changes if it recurs?)... but yes they have biomom and biodad they can come to a dna profile without a toothbrush or hairbrush if they have to
Misses being with her family - she means Adam, right? There isn't anyone else left!
