Good Lord...........there is no telling how long she has been gone. And now you have to look at Dad too if that's the case.

Jon Benet Ramsey anyone???

Geesh. A note in the house?? Yet they don't believe she was abducted or ran away. That's not really a good sign.

That poor police chief... the media there is more like typical media. He needs Oregon media, he's not prepared to handle regular media.

Just curious why the booking information on EAB from yesterday would have a different address on the same street? :waitasec:

Oh Lawd, don't confuse me even more! The NW was hard enough to find. lol. But our local Dragonfly said we have the right addy. No clue why they are different.

What note?? I missed it.

Said there was a ransom note but no one has called, so they don't believe it is legit. Short presser and the Cop didn't have much info.

It appears that there is way, way more to this than we even imagined. I would love to see that entire press conference. Hopefully, one of the sites will put it up in its entirety soon.

Police Chief wants anyone who's seen Zahra in the last MONTH to call them, if I heard correctly as I tuned in.

I was afraid of that. I believe this child has been abused and that's the reason she started "home-schooling" her. So no one would know.
This stepmom doesn't seem capable of home-schooling.

Rotenberry said about six months ago, she noticed that Elise Baker's hand was swollen. "She told me that she was trying to spank Zahra, but hit her on her prosthetic leg," she said. "When Adam asked her about the injury, she said she fell and hurt her hand. She didn't want him to know. She knew he would be mad."

Another former neighbor, Brandy Stapleton, 22, of Lenoir, said that Elise Baker told her the same story about how she injured her hand. "She wasn't the person everyone thought she was."


On Monday, several of Adam Baker's friends stood outside his one-story house just off a busy Hickory street, near the spot where someone had set a fire on Saturday morning. There were a few burned tree limbs and what appeared to be clothing.

Clothing? Oh that does not sound good, not good at all!

MsGothicFairy??? Wow.

 

[SheWhoMustNotBeNamed]

I was wondering if I heard that right. A note??? With a possible location of a body??

I got the impression LE can't place her at the house at all this weekend, and being home schooled, can't get a timeline on just when she was last seen by anyone besides her father and step-mother. This also seems to question the truthfulness of her father's statements. MOO

Must be an old address. http://maps.google.com/maps?f=q&sou...F8&hq=&hnear=Hickory,+Catawba,+North+Carolina

I'm not sure that's her page.

It's her page - her husband and Zahra are on there in the photos!

I agree. I thought he wasn't involved but it is looking more and more like he is.

 

[Kimberlyd125]

She has a rare disease??? Per myspace link above.
Says family does not mean much??!?!?!?!?!!!!

ETA: Says brain cancer

In news video I did see a "21" on a mailbox outside the house, but I was confused by the address on the booking information, especially since both addresses are on the same street! MOO
