HICKORY record
While Adam Baker was in jail for several warrants that Hickory police served from Caldwell County, he was also served with outstanding warrants from Catawba County, as well.
On Monday, police arrested Baker, 33, after he voluntarily came in for an interview at about 3:15 a.m. He was arrested for five counts of worthless checks, three counts of communicating threats and one count of failure to return rental property. The charges all stemmed from incidents in Caldwell County.
“At the time, we knew about the warrants in Catawba County and intended to serve (those) to him at the same time,” said Capt. Thurman Whisnant with the Hickory Police Department. “However, those are paper copies and we had to wait for the clerk’s office to open up.”HUH? they should have popped up in computer in booking!
Baker was served with the Catawba County warrants, which are for four counts of worthless checks, while he was in jail, Whisnant said. Baker bonded out of jail Wednesday afternoon.
Baker is the father of missing 10-year-old Zahra Clare Baker. Zahra was first reported missing on Oct. 9 by her father, Adam, although Hickory police believe she’s been missing longer than that. Zahra was last seen by someone outside of the family on Sept. 25 at a furniture store in Hickory. Zahra was in the store with her stepmother, Elisa Baker.
Elisa, 42, is currently in jail for writing a false ransom note, in which she demanded $1 million. Police charged Elisa with obstruction of justice. She has also been arrested on several other charges unrelated to Zahra’s disappearance.
Police initially called Zahra’s disappearance a missing persons case. On Oct. 12, that was changed to a homicide investigation.
Several areas have been searched for Zahra or for evidence in connection with her disappearance, including a landfill in Caldwell County, the Bakers’ Hickory home and several properties near where the Bakers used to live in Caldwell County.
