Stepmom Charged with Murder in N.C. Girl, Zahra Baker's Death
![]() Elisa Baker, the stepmother of 10-year-old Zahra Baker, was indicted Monday on second-degree murder charges in the girl's death, a Catawba County, North Carolina, court clerk told CNN. Zahra was reported missing from her Hickory, North Carolina, home in October, and some of her dismembered remains were found a month later. Elisa Baker, 42, "desecrated the victim's body to hinder detection, investigation and prosecution of the offense," the indictment handed up Monday said. The stepmother already was charged with obstruction of justice after police said she admitted to planting a fake ransom note. She told police the girl was killed two weeks before she was reported missing, according to search warrants. "The defendant had a history and pattern of physical, verbal and psychological abuse of the victim," the indictment said. The indictment described Zahra as "very young, physically infirm, or handicapped." The girl lost part of her left leg at age 5 and lost hearing in both ears while being treated for cancer. "The defendant took advantage of a position of trust or confidence, including a domestic relationship, to commit the offense," the indictment said. Documents released after Zahra's remains were found in November tell a grisly story. The stepmother said the disabled girl's body was dismembered and disposed in various locations, documents said. A search warrant dated October 27 shows police were looking for latex gloves used to dismember Zahra and trash bags used to store body parts. Elisa Baker was also charged last month with bigamy. She is accused of marrying the girl's father before divorcing her previous husband, a Catawaba County court official said. My question is what was her real motive? Jealousy? Monetary gain (there could NOT have been a significant life insurance policy considering zaras condition) Just plain HATEFUL and EVIL? |

What about the father?!?!?! Your beautiful, sick child was missing for two weeks and you did not contact the police?!?!?! The dad totally had a part in this and the mother should not take the fall alone! They should both get the needle!! That baby was so defenseless. Survived cancer twice just to be murdered by two scumbag sacks of shit. |

I have been wondering why he was not thoroughly investigated. even if he had no part in the actual murder I believe he was an accessory both before and after the fact. He KNEW how that bitch treated his child long before any of this happened, and AFTER she went missing, he HAD to know. |

Where the hell is Zahra's maternal mother? If I had found out that bitch had even touched my child, people would be telling horror stories about what I did to her body, for centuries to come! Don't even get me started on Zahra's so-called "father"!! All the adults here are at fault! If a child goes "missing", YOU DO NOT LET IT GO UNREPORTED!!!!!!!! Doing so only proves your neglect and abusiveness, as well as your guilt! |
