Speaking of the search for Zahra Baker, Douglas Proctor said, “To all the people who helped us come out and look the other day, to all the messages that we’ve received, all the phone calls — it’s not gone unnoticed.” He also spoke about the efforts law enforcement officials have made in Zahra’s case and vowed that they wouldn’t stop looking for Zahra, “I just want everyone to know that we really appreciate everything and that we’re not going to stop looking for Zahra. We’ll go as long as it takes.”

Search for Zahra Baker: Where to Look Next?
Authorities Expand Search After Home, Woods, Pond Turn Up Little


Hickory. N.C., police, aided by teams from area sheriff's offices and NCMEC's Adam Team, which deploys specialized search units, have already combed through the family's home, the wooded areas nearby and the property where the 10-year-old's father worked.
 
LE Has got to be emotionally worn out. I know im getting that way just sitting here wanting it to be solved. It takes special people to do what they are doing. Makes me wish I could give them all big hugs!!! JMHO

It seems that Zahra's father and stepfather physically fought each other, as per this person's account:

“They fought verbally and physically with each other. You could hear it through the walls,” Shirley said. “They’d even take it out into the parking lot.”
It was so bad one time that it knocked the pictures off the wall the Mims shared with the Bakers, Shirley said."

If the dad had a short fuse, wouldn't he freak out on Elisa enough to flip on her and beat her up (not condoning this behavior at all) if he thought she was involved in his daughter's disappearance? I totally think Elisa is directly involved, so either the dad really doesn't think Elisa in involved or he knows she is and is laying low because he's involved too. I've seen photos of Elisa with a black eye. JMO

Hickory Lake. :twocents:

(I do realize that the fact they haven't mobilized an underwater search there means they have nothing leading them in that direction. But where else?)
 
This comment on the Hickory Daily Record just brought me to tears - looks a girl/woman wrote a poem for Zahra:

Hear My Cry
"For Zahra"

See the smile upon my face?
My little arms I used to embrace
My life that was filed with hopes and dreams.
Now I am lost; can you find me please?

Please don't give up- I'm still out there
I wish I could help you and tell you where.
But, I'm just a child and don't understand why
Someone would hurt me,
Do you hear my cry?

I beat the cancer that took my hearing
My leg.
And tried to stop my breathing.
I fought it hard so I could grow
And through my smiles... I told you so!

I'm just a child with regular dreams
Of being a princess.. and now it seems
My dreams are over, I don't understand why
Please come and find me, please hear my cry.

Don't give up on me, I never did
Please whoever hurt me; tell them where I'm hid.
So I can rest in peace and my body be laid to rest
I fought the fight of life and I think I passed the test.

Help Chief Adkins and the other officers too
Who really want to help me come home to you.
When you see my face, please say a prayer
There's hope with Jesus, cause I'm out there .....somewhere.

For Zahra

OMG that is so sad!!!!
It brings tears to my eyes!!!
Poor Zahra....
 
A thread was set up so that everyone can let it rip outside of public view.

Thanks, didn't know that - just for clarification, can you not even mention her name on public threads?
 
The one article mentioned that search efforts usually start at home and then expand in radius as needed, which makes sense. I wonder how big of a radius it will take in this case though :(
