Zahra Clare Baker #4 10/22/10 - 10/28/10

[no rose colored glasses]

Investigators hoped that the mattress could help them narrow their timeline, corroborate interviews and provide DNA evidence in what police are calling a homicide investigation.     Zahra's DNA would be on the mattress, must be looking for blood and other bodily fluids

Dubs to defend Elisa Baker

HICKORY --
Zahra Baker’s stepmother has been in the Catawba County jail since Oct. 10, and she’s had frequent visits from three people: her attorney Scott Reilly, attorney Lisa Dubs and private investigator Steve Elhers.

Lisa Dubs confirmed Friday that she has been assigned to Baker’s case as provisional counsel. According to court records, Dubs’ role is to “Conduct a preliminary investigation, determine if the defendant is indigent and needs appointed counsel, and protect the defendant’s rights pending appointment of trial counsel.”

North Carolina’s Indigent Defense Services Director and Capital Defender Robert M. Hurley assigned Dubs to Baker’s case Monday.


Dubs is well-known for defending high-profile murder suspects, and her website describes her specialties as “capital murder cases and serious felonies.”


Dubs is one of about 10 Catawba County attorneys permitted to defend clients facing the death penalty. Even though Baker has not been charged with Zahra’s murder, the case has gained nationwide attention and Hurley has decided that it is appropriate to appoint Dubs because of the likelihood that Baker will eventually be charged with the crime, Dubs explained.


Reilly was appointed to defend Baker on her assortment of charges unrelated to the Zahra Baker homicide investigation and the obstruction of justice charge that followed Baker’s Oct. 12 confession to police that she’d written a fake ransom note demanding $1 million.


Reilly will continue to represent her on those charges, and if Baker is charged with murder and the state pursues the death penalty, it’s possible he and Dubs will defend Baker jointly.
“Scott and I have tried capital cases together before,” Dubs said. “Scott already knows a lot about the case, and we’re going to do whatever’s best for the client.”


On the affidavit of indigence that accompanied her request for a court-appointed attorney, Baker listed her monthly household income as $600 from her husband Adam Baker’s job at Real Tree Services, and $200 from additional income such as food stamps or child support.

$600.00? 

SIX HUNDRED DOLLARS?

This man works from SUN UP TIL SUNDOWN and makes $600.00 per MONTH?

Yeah, ok. 

This must include their rental payment, which has to be deducted from his paycheck and Elisa IS NOT reporting as a credit.

Can someone find out what the rent in that area is?

REMEMBER: According to her family Elisa is a pathological liar.

What about the $10,000.00 she got from the Englishman and anyone else she scammed plus all the free goods and services she received by writing bad checks.

Who knows? And how much was spent on drugs / made from selling drugs?  I think Zahra's last two years were like living in hell and it just burns me up.  How could a father put a child through this?

Some folks convicted of dealing drugs wind up having issues with IRS as unclaimed income.

Made perfect senset to me.... she is a liar..... and the biggest lie of all is what happened to Zahra.  I am so tired of people just getting away with these kinds of crimes these days.  Our laws aren't tough enough.  We don't really enforce them.  It is like that commercial where the drill sergeant is a therapist.  We need to go back to the days where we could put pressure on these scumbags and make them crack instead of mambiepambie land.

Like that commercial, they should throw the book at her.

Did you notice that they already have a private investigator. I bet they will Kronk every person that came forward with information.
Just makes me sick.
