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

[no rose colored glasses]

Nothing new on the noon newscast about Zahra. Just that they are back on Christie rd today. But they are having heavy rains in the area again this afternoon. More severe weather moving in later today.

Thank-you did they say if Elisa was with them again?

No they didn't NRCG....Most of the news today is on storm damage from last night. Just that they were searching again today, but from the weather radar it is pouring rain in the search area.

Thanks, I can imagine it would be very difficult to do any searching in that kind of weather.

I read the bones found were animal bones, so was something else found?

Dubs made it to court this morning for her other case.  Wonder if Gothmonster was driving around without her today or if she stayed in her cell?

I am not sure on the $7000 secured bond. If it was BAIL, it would be 10% of the 7k which would only be $700.00. So in my estimation, it has to be 7k or something worth 7k? Even still.....that isn't much for bond.

[Nut44x4]

something that is worth $7,000 ....?? I still say that isn't much.

[Nut44x4]

imo a BIG bond amount would be in the 250K range

[no rose colored glasses]

OMG and to think that she may have been buried by the house the whole time

Posted: Oct 09, 2010 7:05 PM PDT Updated: Oct 27, 2010 10:49 AM PDT


HICKORY, NC (WBTV) - Various crews were back at the Adam and Elisa Baker house on Wednesday afternoon -- digging with a tractor and rummaging through mulch piles -- a day after a mattress was found in the missing girl case.

Authorities also called a special press conference about the Zahra Baker case at 4:30 pm. WBTV.com plans to carry the press conference LIVE on the web.

On Tuesday afternoon, authorities released two key pieces of information in the Zahra Baker case: confirmation that the missing girl's stepmother started cooperating with police on Sunday and the fact that crews Tuesday accidentally found a mattress similar to Zahra's in the landfill they spent four days in last week.

There was just a tweet that Zahara body was possibly found in Dudley Shoals.  Don't know who the guy is that tweeted and am waiting to see if this is true.

Didn't they search this area with dogs?

I believe so, yes. If you are referring to the yard at the house.
