Zahra Baker, a murdered child

Adkins said police continue to try and form a timeline, to determine when the last time Zahra Baker was seen by anyone outside the household. Neighbors told the Observer on Monday that they had not seen the girl in the six weeks that her parents, Adam and Elisa Baker, had been living in their current house, on 21^st Avenue N.W. in Hickory.

The Bakers moved to Hickory from the Caldwell County town of Hudson.

Kayla Rotenberry, who lives on Phillip Road in the Caldwell County town of Hudson, says the Bakers lived next door to her before moving to Hickory. She told the Observer on Tuesday that she saw a man visit Elisa and Zahra Baker at least once.

After the man left, Kayla Rotenberry said she called Elisa Baker and asked, "Who was that?"

"Elisa told me it was someone from DSS," Rotenberry said.

She said the investigator came because DSS had received reports that Zahra had bruises on her body and was being kept in her room most of the time. Rotenberry's fiancee, Bobby Green, told the Observer he saw bruises on the young girl.

"That little girl was something else," Rotenberry said. "All she wanted was a mom, and she got one who was crazy."
