NC - Zahra Clare Baker, 10, Hickory, 9 Oct 2010 - #1

[majikposhun]

I have no idea how old Zahra was when diagnosed with bone cancer. Was she in Aussi land or here in the states. Do you know? TIA

Step-mom's brain cancer - I have no idea if it's true or not. On her facebook from 2008, wondering if this is how she drew Zahra's dad's attention to her.

this is going to be one convoluted case. moo mho

THis women is a narcissistic sociopath. She said she was diagnosed with brain cancer in 1990, then again in 1994 and then in 2006: http://www.websleuths.com/forums/attachment.php?attachmentid=11702&d=1286824710

Ugh. Off to make a couple calls and find out.
Will be back in short order.

You're the best Oriah!

I can't go there at work, but if that's the song I'm thinking of, I normally love that song...but not now if it's on her webpage, how creepy!

It's the Rob Zombie song.

 

[Reba]

Thanks for welcoming me! I know I'm new, but I feel like I know you all already

I just can't look at the MS anymore! Totally creepy!
It took me about 30 seconds of looking at it to realize this woman is OUT OF HER MIND!!!!

Very dark, very yucky (don't know how else to put it).

IMO when someone looks at that kinda stuff constantly and lives it, they de-sensitize themselves. JMO

I still have a feeling the SM has a drug problem. I've thought that since I saw her mug shot. Then, add all this dark crazy stuff.

JMO/MOO/IMO...and all that jazz.

Yeah, what 42 year-old refers to herself as "goth"? Weirdo!

I did not get to see the presser.... RANSOM NOTE?!?!?!....well, I guess handwriting samples will have a tale to tell. I am still trying my very best to hold out hope that this precious child is going to be found alive....but I must admit that hope is dwindling rapidly...and seeing that hideous myspace page sure didn't help much.....EEEEEEEEEEEUUUUUUUWWWWWWWWWWWWWW :-(

Seems to be obsessed with death, skulls, crossbones, gothic fairies, mental illness, the color black.

I never pictured that type of household when I first saw the picture of Zahra. Fair skinned and freckled. Beautiful little girl. So full of innocence.

And her primary caretaker is a dark soul who loves death, funerals....

My heart is bleeding for Zahra. This will not end well.

It's the Rob Zombie song.

Yes, that's the song I was thinking of! I have it in my Iphone! And now it's connect to this stepmonster. I'll never be able to listen to it again without thinking about her, ugh!

I have known of cases where LE accesses these accounts and therefore the "log in" date is misleading........however in this case I haven't heard of them obtaining any search warrants for computers.

If the father actually did log in yesterday and is "annoyed" all I can say is........"book 'em, Danno!!!" :banghead: MOO

I'm sure they already have the myspace pages, but I sent them a link to the stepmom's anyway, just to be sure :X

That MS page made me feel horrible!

Where is Zahra?????

The stepmother also had a short temper, Rotenberry said.

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.”

Adam Baker was from Australia, and met his current wife over the Internet, Stapleton said. Zahra’s mother lives outside the U.S.

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.

So, there is proof she has hit this child on at least one occasion.


I fear she lost her temper on this poor lamb and beat her to death.

 

[KALI]

Ok. That's just creepy if that is correctly hers....

OMG See how much weight she's lost since 7/2009???
And she looks rough IMO.
DRUGS. IMO

I hope they tested her.
This is not right.

She also speaks of the stepmom in past tense and we know she's alive, safe and sound. I think she might be in the past tense frame of mind because she's a former neighbor and hasn't seen them for a while so her observations refer back to a time in the past.



It worries me that these former neighbors say they saw Zahra often but the current neighbors say they haven't seen her. How long have the Bakers lived here?

Thank you, Donjeta for asking this question. I asked the same thing waaayyy upthread!

I truly question for how long Z has been missing.

Question: Was Z receiving any Disability insurance due to her health conditions?

For Chriss's sake! could this family have been receiving benefits for Z posthumously? Or was this an act of violence by a demented step mom.?

Thoughts anyone?

MOO

The health issue:

 

[Sherbie]

Ok, I've been a long-time lurker and I just have to comment on this case . . .

I have a beautiful 10 year old freckled faced little girl and this one is hitting me hard. Prayers for this precious child . . .

Glad you decided to jump in, Reba. I think all of us are hurting for this precious, absolutely darling little freckled-face angel. It's good to be able to share with each other. Welcome! :hug:

There are several pictures of Zahra on it. She speaks of her husband by name on it.
